Holy Esque

Indie rock and roll/post-punk quartet Holy Esque shaped in 2011, given birth to from a desire to flee their small city in the state of Lanarkshire, Scotland. They transferred to Glasgow and got associated with the wealthy music picture of the town. Frontman Pat Hynes utilized a raspy vocal design within the gauzy and brooding melodies made by his bandmates Shug (electric guitar), Keir Reed (key pad), and Ralph McClure (drums). Both Reed and McClure went to Glasgow College of Art; undoubtedly, their studies inspired the aesthetic design of the music group, a component that proceeded to go hand-in-hand using the music. In 2012, they released their self-titled debut EP, made by Kevin Burleigh (Glasvegas, Basic Minds). The discharge gained a whole lot of mass media interest, including support from BBC Radio DJs such as for example Huw Stephens and Annie Macintosh, which eventually resulted in them executing at Glastonbury over the BBC Presenting stage. Furthermore, they backed the Raveonettes and WU LYF on split tours, and came out on the South by Southwest event in Austin, Tx. They adopted their initial work with the Distribution EP in 2015, that was quickly accompanied by the debut recording At Hope’s Ravine in 2016, using Grammy Award-winning maker Jon Schumann (Mew, Kashmir).
