Suishou No Fune is the Tokyo-based duo of Pirako and Kageo. Crafting songs from the psychedelic interplay of twin guitars and vocals their sound is at once gentle and deeply-layered – conjuring aspects of 60's West Coast pop, shoegaze, and something all their own.
“Suishou No Fune was formed by Pirako Kurenai and Kageo in Tokyo, July,1999.
Basics of their music are formed by twin guitars in duo.
Twin guitar players are influenced and create songs.
Kageo's guitar work establishes the basics of a song in the case of most.
Pirako plays a lead guitar mainly, and often receive inspiration from free style playing, and sing a song adlib.
The artistic sound is the psychedelic Rock that twin guitars work that is full of sensitivity by the freedom that is not bound by stereotype.
Suishou No Fune usually make much songs by adlib, sing the song which make the best use of the japanese poetic beauty.
The songs of "Spirit, Light and Darkness, Soul, Love and Hatred, Shamanistic, Life and Death" will touch your heartstrings.
You will enjoy the sound of Japanese verse and their psychedelic world, if you don't understand Japanese.
Suishou No Fune is magic music.”
Bridget Hayden is a Todmorden-based musician & rural conjurer noted for her participation with free-form noise rock acts such as Vibracathedral Orchestra, Schisms and Sunburned Hand of The Man.
More recently, she's been found performing under various monikers related to the "Folklore Tapes" collective including "TV Terrorland" and "Echo of Light". Other collaborators include Bill Nace, Dan Bridgewood-Hill, Sam Mcloughlin, Roy Claire Potter and Mary Stark.
Bridget’s solo output is somewhat difficult to define, often falling into and swinging in-between the static-haze between words and worlds. Aching, yearning folk abstractions drift and swing between blistering, swelling guitar-crackle: Ecstatic fire, paradoxically concussing and elucidating.
Ghost music for the living, breathing and feeling.
