Fresh off the back of Warp Records repressing their legendary debut album 'Reeled and Skinned', the iconic UK band Red Snapper returns with eight brand-new tracks for their upcoming album, Barb and Feather, marking 30 years since their groundbreaking arrival on the scene.

Following the success of their 2023 live LP, Live at the Moth Club, Red Snapper felt an undeniable creative momentum. This new album is a testament to their ongoing evolution, channeling the electrifying energy of their live performances into fresh, dynamic compositions.

Red Snapper’s unique blend of jazz, funk, electronic grooves continues to inspire fans old and new, cementing their legacy as pioneers of UK music.

Barb and Feather starts with a raucous yet refined 4 tracks from the Red Snapper live band—Rich Thair, Ali Friend, Tom Challenger, and Tara Cunningham—featuring their much-lauded live version of David Bowie’s 'Sound and Vision'.

The second half of the album features 4-tracks from a collaboration between Red Snapper and David Harrow. Born from a shared love of unorthodox production and a mutual respect for each other’s work.
