In The Spotlight

Barbara – “Tolerant Nation”

Based in Brighton, this British duo consists of brothers John and Henry Tydeman. As kids they were already playing songs together at the piano, but five years ago they decided to form a band and pursue a musical career. Since then they’ve toured the UK extensively, playing venues like The Brunswick in Hove and supported The Divine Comedy, Haircut 100 and Paul Weller. Inspired by Electric Light Orchestra, The Kinks and Rufus Wainwright, they released their debut “Brb” in 2021.

Taking us back to the 70s with a Jeff Lynne-touched orchestral pop anthem, their new single asks the question just how tolerant is tolerance? Taken from their upcoming, self-titled, debut album, expected on September 5th, the melodic layering is truly exquisite. From a simple piano to the punchy percussion, various ear-stroking key-changes and exhilarating guitar solo, all ascending to a grand sonic crescendo, this majestic, retro-tinged groove is a musical experience.
