  • Description

    "Is the juice worth the squeeze? Is the honey worth the bees? Is the trip worth the risk? Is the rub worth the fleas?"



    Available on randomly selected pink or yellow LP!



    These are some of the big questions CHILDCARE find themselves pondering at the top of their second album 'Busy Busy People'. It's a mantra that returns later in the record but remains in the back of your brain throughout, a playful enquiry into the purpose of our everyday activities that highlights the South London-based group's knack of marrying the surreal with the ordinary; soberly tripping out during the big shop.



    It's something the group have been refining as part of their identity since their genesis, when singer Ian Cares spent the time between school runs at his nannying job writing songs. He started adding other musicians to the project gradually until two EPs (2017's 'Made Simple' and 2018's 'Luckyucker') and one album (2019's 'Wabi-Sabi') later, Ian, male guitarist Rich Le Gate, bassist Emma Topolski, and male drummer David Dyson have shaped CHILDCARE into one of the most unique emerging groups in the UK. They've earned themselves a loyal following of fans, sold out their biggest show (so far) at London's Scala and gained support from BBC Radio 1 (Annie Mac, Jack Saunders), Spotify (several New Music Friday slots) and five SXSW 2020 showcases, which of course, never happened.
