Description/Reviews:
Hailing from Glasgow, Big Hogg are a six-piece whose eponymous debut displays a truly eclectic attitude. With no need for 15-minute epics, the band’s music combines folk, jazz, chamber music, psychedelic and Canterbury influences (the album’s closing song is dedicated to Robert Wyatt) in an exciting blend that never sounds derivative. A special mention is also deserved by Julia Jeffery’s striking, Gothic-themed artwork. (Raffaella Berry at weekendprog.blogspot.com)
