Chad Valley - Anything

Chad Valley is the side project of Hugo Manuel, who also plays and sings in a band called Jonquil. The name might sound familiar, but that’s more likely the fact that it’s shared with a well known toy manufacturer.

Hugo Manuel makes music as if Passion Pit had spent a couple of summers in Ibiza. He provides a stunning, warped soundtrack and is about to become the UK’s chief pioneer of digital dream-pop. Think dark and truncated vocals, psychedelic keys and overwhelming rhythms, all in the melodic style of Washed Out and Memory Tapes.

Anything appears on his forthcoming four-track debut EP, Chad Valley, due out November 16.
