Biography

"Lovely new music by them... one of the best new things I've heard in ages" - Chris Hawkins, BBC Radio 6 Music A quintet spread out across the North East, Komparrison was formed by friends Elise Harrison and Katilyn Kempen. The duo spent five years writing and gigging as an acoustic act, before adding more members, Ellie, Jess & Elliott, to the line-up late in 2020 to grow the project and flesh out their sound. Their debut single ‘Dancing With Demons’ was released in January 2021 and soon came to the attention of respected tastemakers such as BBC Introducing, This Feeling and NARC. Magazine. Outwardly trading in feel-good indie and care-free attitudes, the band write songs with depth and startling observation to create an essential document of life as a working class woman in the North East. Taking influence from such artists as Lily Allen and Orla Gartland, Komparrison have the confidence to talk about taboo subjects and make them light hearted. Their music also tips its hat to the best of British guitar bands like Arctic Monkeys, Royal Blood and many from the Brit Pop era. Support slots with Walt Disco, Martha Hill and The Lottery Winners - as well as explosive sets at Twisterella and Gathering Sounds - have helped establish the band as one of the north east's most exciting young acts. As one of This Feeling's 'Big in 2022' bands and with the support of Chris Hawkins at BBC Radio 6 Music already under their belts, 2022 is shaping up to be some year for the band.
