Deary

1 festival played →

London duo working in dream-pop haze — breathy melodies laid over shoegaze guitar and skittering breakbeats borrowed from 90s club records.

Deary are a London duo made up of vocalist Dottie Cockburn and multi-instrumentalist Ben Easton. Their music sits between dream pop and shoegaze, pairing soft, close-mic'd vocals with layered, heavily effected guitar, and setting the whole thing over drum programming that borrows from 1990s jungle and breakbeat records. The results tend toward slow-moving melody and thick atmosphere rather than conventional song structure, and the group records for Sonic Cathedral.
