The Hope & Ruin (Brighton)
Their debut album, Wield Your Hope Like A Weapon, is a potent set of alternative sweeping rock and epic bedroom rock that mixes shoegaze, grunge, and emo elements, providing the backdrop to Elise's urgent, expressive, and dark-yet-triumphant lyrics.
What is Soot Sprite's background? Soot Sprite originated in Devon, UK, in 2018 as a lo-fi bedroom pop project by front-woman Elise Cook, before adding bassist Sean Mariner and drummer Sam Cother to form a trio.
What kind of music can we expect from them? Their music blends shoegaze, grunge, and emo, with Cook's lyrics dealing with hope, mental health, and political exhaustion, drawing on the emo and shoegaze tradition while leaning towards more expansive, layered arrangements.
