about

New Born Animal are a seven-piece group from London, England. Having slowly transformed from previous endeavour Zee Town & The Dog Boys, amongst other foundations, New Born Animal is the now singular passion project of Thomas Armstrong, joined across various instruments of eclecticism and art by Molly Martin, Max Jedwab, Oscar Lane, Charlie Hawley, Oliver Rudge, and Sam Scott.

To describe the group’s music typically as lo-fi bedroom pop is an underestimation of the width of which they can reach far-vested places. With each churning brass escalation, simmering synth cascade or deeply ponderous voice that peruses all atmospheric consideration, the group channel evident longing through ventricles of escapism and deeply touching affection for present realism. The way in which they conjure disorientation, isolation and quiet fervour not only through each singular appearance of melody but amid the deafening ambience they evoke feels critically contemporary, an integral module that embraces progressive undertaking over traditional manufacture. The natural wonder, foreboding solicitude and ultimate perception that rings from within the aching vocals of Armstrong and Martin is stunning, two voices seemingly summoned to fit next to one another's in collective harmony amongst the unshaken vitriol of noise that towers around them. Unquestionably vulnerable, empathetic and wondrous, New Born Animal are leading us along a path of personal curiosity through their enchanting music.
