Dignan Porch

London’s Dignan Porch have been signed to Captured Tracks ever since Mike Sniper discovered them on Myspace, and remain the only UK band on the storied label’s roster. While the band’s first record, 2010’s Tendrils, was performed and recorded by singer Joe Walsh alone, Walsh subsequently recruited family and friends to form a five-piece band. The reinvented Dignan Porch just released their first album together last summer, the reassuringly titled Nothing Bad Will Ever Happen. These guys wear their ’90s influences on their flannelled sleeves, but imbue them with enough youthful optimism and odd touches to transform them into easygoing and highly hummable fuzzy pop songs.
