The Regressive Left

STYLE.

No Wave perfect for desperate young Marxists

BIO.

Regressive Left took shape over lockdown. The three of us have known each other since we were teenagers, playing on the same bills and DJing the same club nights, but it wasn’t until the pandemic struck that we started writing together as Regressive Left. We are Simon Tyrie, Georgia Hardy and Will Crosby from Luton/Bedford.

SHARE WITH US AN INTERESTING ANECDOTE ABOUT ONE OF YOUR SONGS:

Our next release ‘Room With A View’, which is part of Group Therapy Vol. 2, a charity compilation raising money for Black Minds Matter and Help Musicians, was written while facing a revenge eviction – all for the crime of asking for the boiler to be fixed. It’s more depressing than interesting but hey, that’s Reg Left.

YOU ARE SENT TO MARS, NO CHECK-IN BAGGAGE AND YOU CAN TAKE ONE RECORD. WHICH ONE?

Georgia: Night Cruiser by Deodato
