The Hobbes Fanclub

Shoegaze-minded indie pop trio the Hobbes Fanclub got its origins in 2008 being a transcontinental collaboration between U.K. vocalist/songwriter Leon Carroll and Brazilian musician Fabiana Karpinski. Without ever conference personally, the duo done songs via document writing and released several CD-Rs on smaller indie brands before parting methods this year 2010. In those days Carroll extended the band to add drummer Adam Theakston and bassist/vocalist Louise Phelan, two music artists from his house bottom of Bradford, Britain. The recently reconfigured band started working on a lively pop sound that recalled the same fuzzy, occasionally melancholic visual of early-’90s underground pop works like Velocity Female, Dark Tambourine, and Boyracer, with added details of both jangle and jagged noisiness. By 2012 the music group had played a small number of gigs and celebrations around Britain and released debut 7″ one Your Doubting Center on Shelflife Information, aswell as an internet EP. Their debut full-length found its way to the proper execution of 2014’s Up at Lagrange.
