the task in hand presents...

Jonquil
Apparently they are concentrating very hard on making the best album imaginable. Call it rainbow-pop... calypso tropicalia, but without bongos.
"The tone is deadpan and resonant, the voice more instrument than flowery embellishment, while the tenderness and fragility is left to the other musicians" The Wire

Great Eskimo Hoax
Our favourite Bewdley based dance-a-thon take another chance to demonstrate their latest material (soon to be released via The Task In Hand!!). Ludicrously tight and together, these guys simply get better and betterer! From the jingle jangle of clattering snyths to truly powerful and original drumming, and some liquid guitar thrown in for good measure. Simplified: Fun Fun Fun, Dance Dance Dance!
