Pop Vulture

About the artist

Emerging from the vibrant Leeds DIY scene, Pop Vulture wield influences from the dissonance of the No-Wave movement and the unconventionality of post-punk and drape them over tightly-wound grooves. All of this simmers away underneath stream-of-consciousness narratives, often of mental health and the relentlessness of living. Having received radio support from Steve Lamacq, Emily Pilbeam and Jericho Keys, as well as sharing stages with Yard Act, English Teacher, KEG and DITZ, Pop Vulture’s “potential is tantalising”, as noted by Louder Than War. Performances at Long Division, Live at Leeds and In Colour festivals have spotlighted the band’s “angular rock with a heavy dose of percussion”. Since releasing a string of singles and a limited edition cassette collating their discography from 2019 - 2022, Pop Vulture are currently working with Come Play With Me Records to release new music in 2024. "Having already performed alongside bands like Yard Act, English Teacher and Keg, and with a clear music-making ethos, Pop Vulture's potential is tantalising." - Louder Than War "Pop Culture connoisseurs" - Steve Lamacq. "Pop Vulture get better and better with each release" - Local Sound Focus "Angular art rock with a heavy dose of percussion" (Brudenell Social Club)
