Description
GANNETS emerged onto the UK's underground music scene at around the same time that keyboardist, guitarist and amateur ornithologist Fyfe Dangerfield also formed his pop band Guillemots and subsequently signed to Polydor (Universal Music). Guillemots went on to be shortlisted for the Mercury Music Prize. Guillemots shared Gannets' clarinet and sax section Chris Cundy and Alex Ward for the first few years, and although the two bands served entirely different functions for Dangerfield, a mutual coexistence of pop and experimental music became an important aspect to both projects in varying degrees.
