Since their debut at 16 years old and across three self-released singles, Man/Woman/Chainsaw have proven themselves as one of the most exciting and unpredictable young acts in the capital, both joyous and raucous in equal measures. 2023’s “What Lucy Found There” was to be their breakthrough, securing attention for the band from the likes of The Quietus, NME, So Young, BBC 6 Music and more.
Recently celebrating their 100th gig, at the end of last year the band truly came of age with their debut EP “Eazy Peazy”. Recorded with Gilla Band’s Daniel Fox at Echo Zoo studio in Eastbourne, the group present us with cinematic arrangements, mauled by moments of cacophony; the band’s Billy Ward says of their writing process, “we thrive on the thin line between pretty and noisy, often trying to jump between the two – it’s that chaos that excites us.”
