‘Speak Softly, Son’ arrives little more than a year after Little Grandad played their first show at The Windmill in Brixtonlast summer.
The band are led by brothers Jack Lower (bass/vocals) and Harry Lower (guitar/vocals), who began sharing musical ideas after they both moved back into their family home after university.
They went on to develop what they call their “blood harmonies”, with the group drawing inspiration from songwriters such as Bob Dylan,LeonardCohenandNeil Young.
Speaking toNMEin July, Jack revealed that the band had decided against releasing an EP before their first album.“We were like, we’regonnaskip the EP – let’s go for the album,” he said.
Discussing the band’s approach to songwriting, Jackadded: “I think thereis just a wider movement towards songs again.It’slike,wewannatell you a story through this song, and that’sgonnabe done with guitars.
