Info
Squid have come a long way since forming in 2016 as an instrumental jazz band for a monthly night in Brighton whilst living in cheap rented accommodation across the Sussex coast as they finished their studies. The band started expressing influences from outsider punk to Fourth World, and became known for their chaotic and increasingly intense live shows. The band relocated to London to make the most of their growing reputation, and having heard them at the Brixton institution The Windmill, producer Dan Carey invited them to his studio, releasing a string of singles on Speedy Wunderground and the Town Centre EP (2019) which cemented their reputation. An album deal with label Warp followed.
Now on their third album, Cowards, the English art rock quintet extend and explore textures of folk, kosmische, psychedelia, jazz and electronics, hovering above distinct tales of human evil: apophenia-tinged songs punched by dark comedy. Squid will present this work on stage at Future Yard on 25 October 2026.
