Hurtling are Jen Macro, Jon Clayton and Simon Kobayashi.

 

They are sometimes dreamy, they are sometimes noisy.

 

Heavily influenced by 90s alt-rock, Hurtling's pop sensibilities are bathed/drowned in loud guitars (Jen) and intricate basslines (Simon) all underpinned by driving drums (Jon). Taking inspiration from bands such as The Breeders, Sebadoh and Throwing Muses 

but make a sound all their own, the three members of the band are seasoned professionals. Lead singer/guitarist Jen Macro has played and sung live with a number of respected artists including My Bloody Valentine and Graham Coxon. Drummer

Jon Clayton has run OneCat Studio in Brixton for over 10 years and has worked with artists including Jim Bob (Carter USM), Charlotte Hatherley, The Monochrome Set and Chris T-T and both Jon and Jen wrote, performed and produced in Something Beginning L. Simon Kobayashi (Bass) is founding member of Smallgang and Splintered Man and has lent his musical talents to Shonen Knife, Bitch Magnet and Kath Bloom.

 

The band started life when Jen returned from touring as keyboard player and guitarist with My Bloody Valentine. Having written a handful of songs whilst on the road, she then started to muck around with them in Jon's OneCat Studio where Jon took up the (unusual for him) position of drummer. The project picked up momentum when Simon joined the duo, and the three piece started to venture into live performances towards the latter part of 2015.

Debut album 'Future From Here' was released on October 18th, 2019, on Onomatopoeia Records.
