Rubber Oh
Rubber Oh is the psych-pop experimentations of North East musician and producer Sam Grant [Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs]. Created in his studio in Newcastle [Blank Studios], Rubber Oh is a vessel for warped sounds, heavy rhythms and dense melodies.
Collaborations and contributions run throughout the project from numerous sound wizards, including Richard Dawson, Rozi Plain, MeLostMe, Ceitidh Mac, and Voka Gentle.
Live, the latest incarnation of the project sees Grant as a solo performer, working with the songs to develop new perspectives and arrangements.
