MEMORIALS

MEMORIALS channel the spirit of free jazz to create cosmic journeys into psychedelic
rock, far out folk and wild analogue electronics, drawing comparisons to Broadcast,
Portishead and The Velvet Underground.

The duo of Verity Susman and Matthew Simms formed in 2022 just before the release of
their film score work, with two soundtrack albums released on the same day in 2023 – Music
For Film: Tramps! and Music For Film: Women Against The Bomb. Their music is incredibly
varied yet retains its own distinctive identity and is produced entirely by the two
in their own studio, utilising analogue recording techniques, reel-to-reel tape machines and
vintage effects. Continued offers to perform live around the world have allowed the band to
discover a new creative focus outside of working to film and 2024 has seen them sign to Fire
Records to release their much-anticipated debut album.
