Ulrika Spacek are an English alternative rock band formed in 2014 currently composed of singer-guitarist Rhys Edwards, guitarist Rhys Williams, guitarist-keyboardist Joseph Stone, bassist Syd Kemp and drummer Callum Brown. Edwards and Stone were previously members of Reading band Tripwires, with Williams having previously toured with the band as an additional guitarist and releasing material under the Viscous Liquid moniker.
In Spring 2014, Edwards began working on new material in Berlin with Reading school friend Rhys Williams. On returning to England, they re-located to Homerton, East London where they completed the album at a shared house named KEN. Soon after saw the formation of ‘Oysterland’, a self-curated night that combined the band’s earliest live performances with a series of art exhibitions. They released “The Album Paranoia” in February 2016 .
Second album “Modern English Decoration” followed in June 2017, previewing songs via the answering machine of KEN. Initial copies of the album on vinyl came with a bonus 7″, which neglected to include a tracklisting. One of the tracks was later confirmed to be a cover version of a song by Parsley Sounds entitled Ease Yourself And Glide. Commenting on plans for forthcoming releases, frontman Rhys Edwards stated that “We see our first two albums as brother and sister records and think it will be nice to leave them both out there for a little while before we think about putting out another record”.
