mary in the junkyard
Prior to their first-ever release, Mary In The Junkyard (which consists of guitarist and vocalist Clara Freeman-Taylor, bassist and viola player Saya Barbaglia, and drummer David Addison) had already developed a celebrated reputation on London’s live circuit. Beyond the dozens of gigs at their stomping grounds of Brixton Windmill, they’ve performed at impressive festivals like Green Man in Wales and End of the Road in Wiltshire. They will also hit the stage Live At Leeds, Left Of The Dial in Rotterdam, Holland, and in Corsica Studios in London in the coming weeks.
Serendipitously, this foray into new territory is a succinct representation of what the band captures on “Tuesday”: “I wrote ‘Tuesday’ when I was first experiencing life in a city and was feeling very small. It’s so easy to be swept along with the bustle and noise and feel like a worker ant amidst thousands of others. I wanted to write about my yearning for chaos and realness - we all have wildness within us that we might be suppressing and we shouldn't feel like aliens because of it,” Freeman-Taylor explains about the release.
