Puce Wallpaper: Walking On Grass
Newcastle, there's lots of strange stuff there. Strange as PuceWallpaper. The sound of sixties-folk-punk-fusion with added scones. Three guys making a loud noise, that about sums up PuceWallpaper. In many ways, we're eighties throwbacks but we wear our sixties influences on our sleeves. Our music is indie, pop or maybe it just defies labels. Think of us as the happy Smiths or the Housemartins without the social conscience. Not so much the Who, as the what.

All Day Sucker: Heavy Weather
As musicians, we use the framework of pop music aesthetics to make pop music wonderful, be it through song structure, melody or harmonies, All Day Sucker singer Morty Coyle states. We've been praying at the altar of pop music our entire lives. Now we're ready to take our place in the church.
