Scaring the Grass In the Garden

Glasgow-based ensemble blend samples and loops from a variety of disparate sources, gelling them together with more traditional instrumentation to create quirky off-kilter and beautiful pop songs. Their sound is lush, melodic and highly evocative, combining influences from a range of unlikely sources, taking in both the contemporary and the obsolete, high and low fidelity, the popular and the obscure. They also have releases on Twisted Nerve (singles club) and Textile Records of France.

'Performed with great affection, Scaring the Grass In the Garden cuts a deep impression on the first listen. These precious nine songs build the finest momentum of the year so far. Hassle Hound's sense of experimentation is combined with genuine talent' -Maarten Schiethart, Penntblackmusic
