Outside Your House - 8 Foot Superhuman Mannequins
from KANEDA / NORTHERN ELECTRIC #2 by Kaneda Records
about
OUTSIDE YOUR HOUSE are Barely Rap duo Faithful Johannes (words) and Jonathan Swift (tunes)
Faithful Johannes is part spoken word poet, part folk singer, part laid-back rapper with an eye for detail. Sweet-singing Jonathan Swift‘s musical scrapbook of vinyl samples, live instruments and cut-up beats delivers the melancholy pop backdrop.
OYH have drawn a cult following from their unorthodox energetic live shows and festival appearances; usually featuring tribal drumming, toy keyboards, driving bass hits, furniture climbing and sign waving, enveloping unique and direct lyrics.
Their tracks have aired across several radio stations (inc. BBC 6 Music, BBC introducing and local BBC shows) and support has been plentiful from the printed press and prominent music blogs.
Debut vinyl LP to be released Autumn 2017(Sapien Records Ltd and Frux Tapes). The Ones That Left Town EP is available now.
The Durham City combo’s music shines with an inventiveness, verve and singleness akin to Sleaford Mods / cLOUDDEAD / Open Mike Eagle

“OYH bring something very special to the party” – Louder Than War
"An utter enigma… rap that foregoes clichés to create the epitome of glorious DIY music." - NARC
“Great tunes” Tom Robinson, 6 Music
"a joy to watch... a set that leaves you just as tired as the musicians themselves" NE-MM
