THE DECLINING WINTER
Yorkshire based The Declining Winter are led by Richard Adams, the co-founder of the Domino Records group Hood. They are purveyors of a unique form of pastoral pop taking in influences from lo-fi, electronica and post rock with a strong visual aesthetic inspired by the countryside of Yorkshire and beyond. Their latest album ‘Really Early, Really Late’ has been universally praised and compared to the likes of Talk Talk and Bark Psychosis.
“Impressively emulates Mark Hollis’ Godly solo work with a jazz and folk-tinged post-rock beauty” Boomkat
