Sweet Laredo are Sarah J. Scott and Dan W. Coggins T. Finding a shared love of soul,jazz,blues and hip-hop they began to collaborate on smoked-out,beats-driven tunes. These were then stripped back to be played only on a battered old spanish guitar giving full reign to Sarah's incredible voice which veers wildly between the gutsy blues moan of Etta James and the smoked-out rasps of Eryka Badu.

'The material the Messy Subjects write is inspired by relationships, people, places, families, and real life experiences. They share an eclectic list of influences that form their unique sound - described (in a nutshell) as soulful blues meets melancholic jazz.'
Whether it be by handing
out cake or percussive pots of rice to shake, Rachael puts her audience
at ease - she's had plenty of practice, having toured England and Japan
numerous times, and played festival slots since 2001 including an
appearance on Glastonbury’s Acoustic Stage with one of her collaborative projects, Whalebone Polly (with Kate Stables of This is the Kit).
She enjoys performing in intimate settings the most, but can adapt
well, having proved this when she performed a series of shows in Japan,
each to an audience of 3000.
"The aim is simple: to bring Melancholy and her inconsolable gloom to the fore through the artists and musicians that sing her praises. So if you like your music on the dark side, be sure to come here again as we'll be putting on more shows that deliver decadence and bleakness as well as putting out records that weigh heavy with the burden of melancholic beauty"...
