TARA CLERKIN TRIO are Pat Benjamin, Sunny Joe Paradisos and Tara Clerkin, three musicians involved in a number of cult Bristol bands over the years before confidently settling down in triangle formation. Using looped and layered clarinet, vocals, samples, keys & percussion, Tara Clerkin Trio tend to spin you into spacy beguile. They are inspired by and borrow from jazz, trip hop, electronica, psychedelia & minimalism, twirling the non-pretentious strands of these threads together into a trippy green winged-cloak, adorning Arthur Russell and dripping in blue jam. Their self titled debut LP was released in 2020 and was a sleeper hit, coming in at 35 in the Wire's top 100 albums of the year and in Bleeps top 10. The effortless drift of ’In Spring’, the trio’s new EP is a distinctly Bristolian affair in its beatdown pacing and smoky atmosphere, which the label themselves compare to the roster orbiting the city’s Planet Records (Flying Saucer Attack, The Third Eye Foundation) in the ‘90s. Subdued but glowing reveries somewhere between Dominique Lawalrée's intimate parlour music and the sort of skewed narco-pop associated with the Laika x Moonshake axis and Cucina Povera.
