As one of the North West’s most productive, and versatile musicians, Sydney Minsky Sargeant is a self-made force of nature whose dynamic, shock-laden live performances have seen him grace Glastonbury stages, tour the UK and Europe, appear on Later with Jools Holland and be feted by renowned musicians for his critically acclaimed albums as Working Men’s Club. Last month LCD Soundsystem handpicked Working Men’s Club to support them at 4 of their 8 dates as part of their Brixton Academy residency. The 12 songs that mark Lunga – his first album under his own name - were written over a period of years, beginning when Minsky Sargeant (who usually goes by Syd) was a teenager growing up in Todmorden, West Yorkshire and following a chronology to the present day. The glistering melodic songs offer a deeply personal insight and through the record’s unique personality, there are also delicate flourishes of Nick Drake, Bert Jansch, Bon Iver, Bill Callahan, and Robert Kirby’s lush string arrangements as drowsy, ethereal sounds hover in the background. Sydney Minsky Sargeant has metamorphosised into one of the most original, fearless, and creatively ambitious talents. He is the real deal. With Lunga, released on Domino Records on Sept 12th, an audacious, singular vision is realised. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YDfFcXWPmcY
