Let's Eat Grandma - Sax in the City


This multi-instrument toting Norwich-based duo of Rosa Walton and Jenny Hollingworth, both 17, released their debut album I, Gemini last month to critical acclaim. In Sax In The City, the latest single from the album, Let’s Eat Grandma reflect on a human race enslaved by a reliance on tablets and smartphones and share this dystopian nightmare through their unique brand of what they term “sludge-pop”.
The track is a beguiling mix of innocence and inventiveness. After a sea-shanty style beginning, lyrics are whispered in a child-like tone before the saxophone blares out, seemingly uncontrollably at random, and it becomes dub-infused lo-fi pop. It’s catchy and sugar sweet but, with a dark undertone reflected in the subject matter and the repetition of “tell me something interesting”, this duo commands respect. It’s refreshing to hear a band full of creativity whilst retaining a unique, and sinister, sense of humour.  From: https://www.rhiannonholly.com/2016/07/26/lets-eat-grandma-single-review-sax-city/
