Pigeons debut album, OUTTANATIONAL, is a thrilling collection of party songs without limits: think William Onyeabor in outer-space or early Hot Chip making nocturnal acrobat in a 70s New York loft. Building on a string of acclaimed EPs that have been playlists on 6 music and led to coveted live slots at UK festivals like Glastonbury, Pigeon have evolved out of Afro-disco territory into something moodier and more motor. It's an expansive record indebted to the power of the groove and questing to find the meaning of home, laced with heady krautrock, post-punk and punk-funk.
Pigeon are Falle Nioke (vocals, percussion), Graham Godfrey (drums), Josh Ludlow (bass), Steve Pringle (keys, synths) and Tom Dream (Guitar).
Margate-based 5-piece group Pigeon cross effortlessly between Afro-disco, grunge, no wave and jazz
