About Sleaford Mods
Sleaford Mods started in 2007 as Jason Williamson's solo project before Andrew Fearn joined to make the beats, settling the line-up as a duo. Williamson delivers his lyrics in a thick East Midlands accent, swearing freely and aiming at bosses, landlords, politicians and the musicians he finds fake. Fearn's tracks are spare bass lines and drum loops with little else on top.
The pair built an audience through self-released albums such as 'Austerity Dogs' and 'Divide and Exit' before signing to Rough Trade for 'English Tapas', and later releases include 'Spare Ribs' and 'UK GRIM'. On stage the setup barely changes: Fearn presses play on a laptop and stands back with a drink while Williamson paces and shouts. The documentary 'Bunch of Kunst' followed the band through the years their audience grew.
