In 2017, Nicholas Wood introduced the Saccades project with a self-titled debut album, showcasing a departure from The KVB’s somber atmospherics and monumental soundscapes, embracing a stripped-back, psychedelic guitar-driven sound. The subsequent release, ‘Flowing Fades,’ in April 2021, saw Wood reincorporate synths into his compositions, drawing inspiration from a diverse range of influences including J.G. Ballard, Serge Gainsbourg, 80s dream pop, and yacht-rock. To support the album, Wood embarked on Saccades’ inaugural live tour in the summer of 2021, performing a selection of dates throughout the UK, before shifting focus to their next record.
‘Land of the Hearth,’ Saccades’ latest offering, takes its name from a passage by Jonathon Meades and signals a transition for Nicholas Wood, moving away from The KVB’s nocturnal soundscapes and industrial beats, and embracing a more Balearic sensibility. The album boasts a sun-kissed, dreamlike quality, occasionally nodding to the uplifting vibes of house music.
