Housewives live at End of the Road

Late Junction

Available for over a year

London five piece Housewives perform Fallen Arches live on the Late Junction stage at End of the Road festival 2017. Since their formation in 2013, the band, which features Joseph Rafferty on guitar and vocals, David Moran on guitar, Ben Vince on saxophone, Lawrence Dodd on bass and Alexander Evans on drums, have amassed a cult following for their brutalist lo-fi noise music. Their two albums to date draw inspiration from Italian noise pioneer and instrument builder Luigi Russolo, Steve Reich, the No Wave scene and Charles Hayward's This Heat. They have been championed by Hayward himself, who describes their sound as "a barely controlled anger, hypnotic and building from the simplest elements."
