The Othyrs are built around the family unit of Andy Golding (guitarist of indie-noise pop mainstays The Wolfhounds) and his children Alice and James Golding, plus bassist and brother/uncle Richard Golding and violinist Paul Warwick. The latter two are also members of The Wolfhounds.
‘Science Sunday’ is their third album, with much of it written and recorded when Andy, Alice and James found themselves living under the same roof after Alice completed her psychology degree and James returned to the UK after a year living abroad. With an enforced lockdown also in place at that time, James and Andy recorded everything in their home studio, the majority of instrumentation and arrangements provided by James ahead of Paul adding his signature violin lines and Alice her lead vocals. The family vocal harmony style is highlighted in songs such as ‘Roses’ and ‘The Gulf of Ewe And Eye’. The album has been mixed by engineer Ant Chapman, a long term recording partner of Andy’s.
The Othyrs have become a finely tuned organic live group in the years since lockdown ended. In the studio, this has helped turn them into a highly driven outfit, highlighted on songs such as ‘Nobody Knows’ and ‘Mustard Buzz’. By contrast, the likes of ‘Pure Adrenalin’, 'Skimming Stones’ and ‘Helper' showcase a gentler, acoustic side to this family unit truly making the most of their time, and in doing so creating an album of which they are justly proud.
Released on CD in mid-October, 'Science Sunday’ is available digitally from today.
