The Playing Fields

“Dark, melodic tunesmiths” (The Guardian)

“What might happen if Lou Reed and H. P. Lovecraft met in a pub one dark and gloomy night and decided to form a band.” (Music4M) 

"Ocean-sized and beguiling with a disaffected grunge snarl... gripping and poignant." (Vanity Project)

The Playing Fields debut album ‘Hello New World’ garnered near universal rave reviews, seeing the band featured as Artist of the Month and Artist of the Year in magazines and on radio stations throughout Europe, the US and Oceania. Its “dark, ethereal soundscapes” (Islington Gazette) and “rare sense of depth, both lyrically and instrumentally” (NME) saw the band featured in the top ten of the John Peel festive fifty. 

Recently signed to Patetico Records USA & Sterling Songs Publishing, The Playing Fields return to the scene with a new line up to release their long-awaited new album ‘Hungry Ghosts’, weaving their “audio magic like a soothing spell.” (Blowback Magazine)

"Brilliant... tight, edgy, definitely worth seeing," (Rock Beat Stone)
