If Meaning

Tarbuck & Skelly (Dan and Seb) are an alt-pop duo from London and Oxford.  The unusual combination of Dan’s lively synth production and Seb’s poppy horn hooks results in a fresh and exciting soundworld, bound to surprise. 

Fusing catchy vocal melodies and horns, gnarly synths, intriguing harmonies, and film score influences, their songs explore everything from tender heartbreak to pure euphoria – sometimes as an imagined character, other times reflecting on very real experiences, though the line is often ambiguous.

Sharing impressive new, emerging, and under the radar artists, both here and via Spotify.

New bands, new music, new music videos, and a lot of songs to remember.

A small amount of chaos is now on Twitter  (although the rancid horror of that place under the repellent owner will force a relocation, with BlueSky looking the most likely...)

We got thrown off TikTok because the 52 second runtime of our track Big Band Theory was quite correctly perceived as being of 'prog-rock dinosaur proportions'; chastened by this, we are now here instead.
