Little Storping in the Swuff is an alternative pop music collective from Rochester, England.
Formation
editNamed after a fictional town from an episode of the cult 1960s British TV spy series, The Avengers, Little Storping in the Swuff was unveiled in 2023 as the new music project for Rochester based songwriter David Goggin. Goggin was previously the lead singer and songwriter for quirky guitar pop[1] outfit Brigadier Ambrose and London band Vlks, described in The Guardian’s band of the day column as “promisingly miserabilist elegiac melodrama’.[2] Little Storping In The Swuff is the strange English town where Goggin’s previous artistic outputs appear to meet.
Current Activity
editThe debut album Baroque Anxieties was released on 29 March 2024.[3] It was recorded and co-produced with Jim Riley at Ranscombe Studios in Kent, Goggin performing most of the instruments himself with a supporting cast of friends on backing vocals, violin, cello and trumpet duties. The album was featured in The Guardian's culture recommendations of the week, described as 'brilliantly out of step with modern life'[4]. Shindig! magazine declared the record as 'comprehensively Anglified in every possible way...the album's kaleidoscopic take on Anglo DIY pop-psych whimsy and extravagant musicality are evident everywhere you care to look'.[5] The lead track "Prickly David" has also been featured across BBC radio.[6]
