Biography

Placed somewhere between a subconscious revelation of internalized pop music tropes and a resolve to foment comfort by presenting the uncomfortable, Begum’s music treads a unique trajectory for retention. Initially formed as an exercise in allowing both lyrics and sonics to spill out with no second thoughts, the project has, over almost ten years, become more refined, but still based on that gut instinct. Equally as steeped in hooks and melody as indebted to abstraction and alienation, the music this three piece band presents is the quintessential “band’s band” - the kind of signature that makes other musicians say “why didn’t I think of that”, all while leading new audiences to their instincts, though without knowing quite why.
