In 1980, the single "Skinhead Moonstomp" was re-issued in the wake of the 2 Tone craze, hitting No. 54 on the UK Singles Chart.The band officially split in 1985 after releasing the album Drunk & Disorderly as The Pyramids.

Signing with Transatlantic Records, their debut album ‘The Pentangle’ was released 17th May 1968.

The Ingrid (Josh and Jess)

Today's episode is brought to you in association with the Strong Coffee Company. Please scroll down to the bottom for your exclusive 20% discount. Listen out for more from the Strong Coffee Company on today's podcast. Today we are joined in the Chatterbox studio by Josh and Jess of The Ingrid Rising UK trio, The Ingrid return with their third single Lullaby - a track that blends dream-pop, shoegaze, and alt-rock textures into something both beautiful and quietly unnerving. Drawing inspiration from artists like The Sundays, Wolf Alice, The Smiths and The Marías, The Ingrid have quickly carved out a sound defined by contrast - where melodic calm meets emotional unease, and softness gives way to something far more complex beneath the surface. Formed at university in Chichester, the trio - Jess Charleslyn, Will Hornsblow and Josh Platt - bring together a unique mix of influences. Charleslyn’s roots as a minimalist singer-songwriter (inspired by early Dodie) have evolved into layered arrangements of vocals, guitar and keys. Hornsblow’s blues-leaning guitar style cuts through the band’s dreamy textures, while Platt approaches drums with a storytelling instinct shaped by classic rock traditions. Their latest single, Lullaby, plays on the very idea its title suggests. Traditionally, a lullaby is meant to comfort - to create a sense of safety. But here, The Ingrid flips that expectation, exploring what happens when that sense of comfort feels performative rather than real. The track dives into themes of emotional illusion and surface-level empathy - the kind of connection that appears deep and sincere yet reveals itself to be something much more fragile. As Charleslyn explains: “It starts with something specific, but it’s not truly autobiographical – it’s more about a type of behaviour people recognise.” Rather than confronting its subject directly, Lullaby exists in a space of quiet awareness - observing the illusion while still engaging with it. The result is a song that feels intimate, ambiguous, and at times uncomfortably familiar. Following previous singles Limerence - a study of obsessive projection - and Mother, which explored memory and perception, Lullaby hints at a deeper thematic thread running through the band’s work. Whether intentional or not, the progression suggests a growing narrative taking shape. With increasing momentum and subtle signs of a debut album in the works, The Ingrid are steadily positioning themselves as one of the most compelling emerging voices in the UK alternative scene. www.theingridband.com Elevate your coffee routine with Strong Coffee Company's "Black" instant blend and lattes.

Today's episode is brought to you in association with the Strong Coffee Company. Please scroll down to the bottom for your exclusive 20% discount. Listen out for more from the Strong Coffee Company on today's podcast. Today we are joined in the Chatterbox studio by Jacqulyn B. Born in Los Angeles and raised in Miami, Jacquelyn grew up immersed in South Florida’s multicultural pulse—a backdrop that shaped her melodic instinct and storytelling voice from a young age. Her music sits at the crossroads of soulful introspection and irresistible melody drawing inspiration from Carole King, Joni Mitchell and Stevie Nicks, and contemporary artists like Adele, Sara Bareilles, Kacey Musgraves, Chris Stapleton and Ed Sheeran. While developing her sound in Miami, Jacquelyn’s gift for crafting clever, catchy, and emotionally resonant songs caught the attention of Grammy and Billboard Award–winning songwriter and producer Rudy Perez, sparking a long-standing creative collaboration. Most recently, she teamed with two-time Grammy-winning producer and songwriter Marlow Rosado to craft the album Gonna Take You Home Tonight, a collection of soulful songs that showcases refined craft, emotional honesty, and a sophisticated, jazz-tinged pop sensibility. This new chapter continues to emphasize Jacquelyn’s ability to blend timeless influence with modern clarity, delivering music that invites listeners into moments of vulnerability, strength, desire, and reflection. As she forges ahead, Jacquelyn is collaborating with Grammy-winning producers Wayne and Brian Jobson and iconic studio and touring musician Paul Pesco, expanding her sonic palette and live performance impact. These partnerships promise a bold evolution of her sound, while staying true to her roots in intimate storytelling, precision vocal work, and heartfelt connection with audiences. Rooted in enduring influences yet unmistakably contemporary, Jacquelyn’s artistry remains focused on music that is not only beautifully crafted but deeply human. NEW! “In ‘One More Time,’ I express the deep bond I shared with my beloved brother, who bravely faced cancer until 2019. He was not just my sibling but my best friend, a constant source of strength, laughter, and love in my life. This song serves as a heartfelt tribute to his spirit and the cherished memories we created together. Though he is no longer physically present, his influence continues to inspire my music and my journey. I hope this piece resonates with anyone who has experienced the profound loss of a loved one, offering comfort and a reminder that love transcends time.” — Jacquelyn Elevate your coffee routine with Strong Coffee Company's "Black" instant blend and lattes.
