Gulp are Guto Pryce of Super Furry Animals and Lindsey Leven. Their distinctive sound has been described as cinematic, dazzling and hypnotic.
Gulp's musical journey stemmed from Guto and Lindsey's travels through the Scottish Highlands, Wild West Wales and the Californian Desert. They found themselves inspired by landscapes and camaraderie, acoustic and electronic grooves, filmic sounds and sweet melodies.
June 2012 saw the release of their debut single, Game Love. The single received great acclaim including a 5* review from Artrocker magazine and pick of the week in The Guardian Guide. Gulp are currently working on an lp due to be completed by summer 2013.
In late 2012 Gulp toured the UK and Ireland supporting Django Django and also contributed to the Django's Hi Djinx! remix lp with a cover version of Hand of Man.
Their live performance is a grooving amalgamation of fuzzy base, ethereal vocals, surfy guitars, live beats and drum machines.
"a thing of eyeball popping beauty that deserves to have psychotropic palm leaves wafted at its feet (and then, ideally, eaten)" Artrocker 5 stars *****
"It's an amalgam of 21st-century electronic squiggles and vintage airy psych-folk, as contemporary as video games and as old as the hills" Spin.com
"(Game Love's) spooked demeanour suggests The Wicker Man getting fresh with Nancy Sinatra. That's Gulp: easy to swallow, hard to forget" Guardian Guide Pick of the Week
