Little Storping In The Swuff is a 'psych meets kitchen-sink realism' music combo named after a fictional town from an episode of the cult 60s British TV spy series The Avengers. Initially unveiled in 2023 with their debut album 'Baroque Anxieties', they gained much support across BBC 6 Music (including a session for Riley & Coe) and supportive words in the press, including The Guardian, Shindig! and Bearded Magazine.
Prior to Little Storping In The Swuff, David Goggin was the creative force behind Medway pysch-pop outfit Brigadier Ambrose, once described by Huw Stephens as 'the greatest thing to ever come out of Chatham'. Brigadier Ambrose released a series of 60s psych influenced singles and an album in the late 00s to widespread Radio One, Radio Two and BBC 6 Music airplay, and performed at various festivals like Latitude and with BBC Introducing during that period.
Over ten new tracks, the new album 'Hassle Olympics' celebrates the daily competition of absurd domestic chores to a psychedelic soundtrack. 'Grab Bag' is a musing on an idiot politician taking solace in a packet of crisps, beamed in from 1967 UFO Club London; 'Weather Photos' zooms in tightly on problems caused by 1 centimetre of snow and features Bob Collins (The Dentists, Swansea Sound) on 12-string electric guitar; 'Competitive Domestic' one-upmanships on stories told over lunch to Good Morning Good Morning era Beatles; 'Night Sweats' is an indie- pop-bop with a very naked anxiety dream.
Having honed their eccentric live reputation with a series of absurdist happenings, the new album was recorded in the stoically analogue Ranscombe Studios in Kent and co-produced with Jim Riley.
