Quack Quack
Two drum sets, a bass guitar and a keyboard with only three musicians, this can’t be any good. Welcome to Quack Quack, from Leeds, Neil Turpin (Drums) Stuart Bannister (Bass) and Richard Morris (Keyboards and Drums), who got together in 2005 have turned logic on its head and their ability to surprise makes for a highly successful unit.
Taking simple starting points, Quack Quack develop the theme to what seems like its inevitable conclusion, before a change of tempo or lead instrument, changes the piece into a cleverly crafted piece of musicianship.
It is good to be able to review bands who get off the beaten track and Quack Quack do this in no small way. Not easily categorized, their musical influences are wide ranging, which reflects in the music the trio play.
The music works as effectively in live performance as it does recorded, the material being released on Run of the Mill Records. Catching them live isn’t too difficult as they have always had an extensive gig list.
Quack Quack are exactly the right band for the indie bands blog.
