Honeymooner & So Young presents: WellyThe Joiners, Southampton - 15 September
14+ / 7.30pm
Tickets: https://honeymooner.seetickets.com
Welly is "one of the most exciting new acts in ages" (Dork Magazine). Crashing together the best bits of escapist pop, indie-disco, punk and DIY electronics, the group—made up of Welly and his school-mates—show early ambition to reconnect the great, grassroots British tradition with the mainstream band. First single ‘Shopping’, for instance, was a riotous love-letter to the UK high street, as compelled by the arch, art-rock of Pulp as the left-field bangers of Girls Aloud. Currently working as a greengrocer, Welly is quickly building a world of curtain-twitching storytelling: recent single ‘Soak Up The Culture’ both sends-up and pays loving tribute to the Lads-On-Tour anthem, whilst 'Deere John' is a rollicking tableaux of marital strife (and a lawn-mower). With early support across 6Music, Radio X, and a run of sold-out shows and festivals, Welly are rallying a young audience likewise in search of something different (and something fun). "Meet one of the UK's wittiest new songwriters" - NME - "a Where's Wally (or Where's Welly) of suburban England."
