Memorial
Memorial is a project rooted in friendship, one fuelled by unflinching honesty. Ollie Spalding and Jack Watts were friends first, and song-writing partners second, and this quality sets them apart. They're marked by that peculiar alchemy when two voices become one, a special sense of human connection wrought through harmony and emboldened with experience. New album "Redsetter" is their coming-of-age moment: gilded indie-folk with an optimistic sense of maturity, it dares to look towards the light.
"We had literally no idea what was gonna happen!" Ollie gasps when looking back on the pair's self-titled debut album. Sculpted over the pandemic and released on Real Kind Records - the boutique Communion imprint chaired by Lucy Rose - the record displayed their core values. "The emotion has to be right," says Oliver. "When we record songs, we want to stay true to the emotion - as though those songs had just been written seconds before they were recorded."
