DIVINE SCHISM: HMS MORRIS + SASSYHIYA + LUCY LEAVE + SKSIE

HMS Morris are an art-rock group from Wales. They’ve been touring and recording since 2015, and are supported by the Cardiff-based Bubblewrap Collective. Their 2 full-length albums to date (2016’s ‘Interior Design’ and 2018’s ‘Inspirational Talks’) both earned nominations for the Welsh Music Prize, and were variously described as ‘Innovative, forward thinking pop music’ (Earthly Pleasures), ‘strange and beautiful music’ (ElectronicSound) and a ‘multi-dimensional sound that traipses across hitherto unexplored regions ofsound’ (Clash)’. Their third album, Dollar Lizard Money Zombie (to be released 15/9/23) is a playful repudiation of the worldview that reduces 99% of us to brain dead money zombies, labouring for the glory of the empires of a few giant dollar lizards. It is the first HMS album to feature Billy Morley and Iestyn Huw Jones on guitar and drums, and ranges from 50s cowboy sweetness to electro-metal madness, from rambling acoustic prog to the tightest of synth-pop ditties.
