Stark: Stories From The Ground

Stories From The Ground
Stark
Stark - a three-piece band hailing from Brighton - have just released their new EP, featuring six original songs crossing several genres.

Track List

Let's Talk Down Together
Killing Floor
Faith
Ghost
Hundred For An Inch
Ball And Chain

Stark are: Jamie Francis (lead vocals, guitar, banjo); Evan Carson (drums and vocals); John 'Rusty' Franklin (bass). Each player brings his own influences to bear across the EP, so we get an intriguing blend of progressive rock, blues, funk and even a slice or two of country.

The music is highly original, with very interesting arrangements. A recurring theme for the listener is just when it seems each song has been pinned down and identified, it has a tendency to throw an aural curveball or two to throw up more sonic questions than answers.
