Like the ominous skies before a storm, Bristol-based foursome Grandmas House's debut, Baby You're A Winner, captures both the light and dark of human connection through riotous rock anthems, whipsmart storytelling, and moments of startling tenderness. As the interlocking guitar and choral harmonies of title track ‘Baby You’re A Winner’ swirl into your subconscious, you might be expecting an easy introduction from Grandmas House.
But this Bristol-based foursome’s foundations are built on dancing the fine line between dark and light. This mission is deadly apparent from the moment Zoë Zinsmeister’s rumbling basslines kick in. The band’s debut is heavy with opposing elements: melodic and abrasive, intimate and chaotic, carefully composed yet riotously riveting. And that’s no truer than in their standout vocal delivery. Guitarist Yasmin Berndt’s signature snarl cuts through the UK’s current post-punk landscape (but, if pushed, recalls the unpolished growl of Fontaines DC’s Grian Chatten). Drummer Poppy Dodgson adds a striking second lead vocal presence, while bassist Zoë Zinsmeister brings a third layer to the group’s often sinister harmonies.
Band founders Berndt and Dodgson met at university, bonding over left-field indie acts like Shame and Goat Girl. But it was another foursome who encouraged them to pick up their own instruments. After a handful of EP releases and time testing new material out on the road, Grandmas House headed into the studio to lay down their debut with producer Ali Chant (PJ Harvey, Yard Act, Perfume Genius) to translate the intensity of the band’s live shows into something more expansive.
