Watch These New Puritans' live video and download a free live MP3
These New Puritans are twin brothers George and Jack Barnett, Thomas Hein and Sophie Sleigh-Johnson. They are a Thames Estuary-based band who have released two albums – 2008’s ‘Beat Pyramid’ via Angular and 2010’s ‘Hidden’ via Domino.
Last year, they took to the road for a special series of shows called Hidden Live, for which the band restructured their album ‘Hidden’. Displaying an ambition and a seriousness rare in modern guitar music, they used the Britten Sinfonia, a full choir and some enourmous Japanese drums to make a really fantastic live show, which you should watch below, and download a track from above.
