GULP! - SEPTEMBER 23RD - PRE-ORDER NOW

https://sportsteam.lnk.to/GulpWE

Sports Team have been described as one of the most raucous, electrifying and chaotic acts in the UK. Coming up on the back of word of mouth live hype, drawing round the block queues to chaotic early gigs at The Five Bells and Moth Club before releasing any music - the band have consistently set themselves apart with their intoxicating ambition. Their Mercury Prize nominated debut album Deep Down Happy (released June 19th, 2020) delivered on all bold claims, and confirmed their place at the head of a group of young guitar acts. Documenting modern Britain in all its messy complexity, and their own lives as young tyros fine-tuning their plan to ravish the charts, their songs are both affectionate and disdainful - much like the band’s oft-cited folk hero John Betjeman, whose poems and documentaries poked around suburban habitats with appalled fascination. But it’s in the band’s dynamic and character where inspiration yields. Overhearing Sports Team in the pub is what you hear in the songs. An endless back-and-forth with no give or take; a succession of vivid snapshots of modern Britain and the follies, foibles and frustrations of youth. The band calls to mind a loving but fractious family, bickering one minute, weeping with laughter the next.

Two music making, tea drinking, boys from the Shire…

Out of all the thousands of artists on Soundcloud, you have made it to us. Nice to meet you. We’re junodream.

We grew up together, becoming friends over our common love of Pink Floyd, Spiritualized, and AIR. We started playing music together and in 2018 we put a name to it. junodream was born.

We play dream rock and we write about alienation in the 21st century. But don’t worry, our songs are somewhere in the middle of sad and uplifting. Welcome aboard, it's just the beginning.
