Dutch Uncles formed in the spring of 2008 in Marple (a suburb of Stockport, England). The line-up comprises Duncan Wallis (vocals/piano), Robin Richards (bass), Andy Proudfoot (drums), Peter Broadhead (guitar/marimba) Neil Wright (guitar) and Henry Broadhead (synths/percussion).
The band distinguished itself by blending pop accessibility with adventurous musical textures, angular rhythms, marimba and vibraphone touches, and often atypical time-signatures. Influences included the likes of Talking Heads, XTC, Kate Bush, King Crimson and composer Steve Reich.
Their self-titled debut album was released in Germany via Tapete Records in 2009, establishing a cult foothold in Europe before gaining broader UK attention. In 2011 they followed with Cadenza, their first UK-released full-length, recorded in Salford, which drew attention for its clever pop craft and expanded musical ambition.
On subsequent albums—Out of Touch in the Wild (2013) and O Shudder (2015)—the band further refined their blend of cerebral pop and emotional introspection. Lyrics began exploring themes such as addiction, domesticity and technological alienation, while the arrangements grew richer and more varied. In 2017 they released Big Balloon, continuing their exploration of art-pop territory and consolidating their place in the UK indie scene.
After a six-year gap, Dutch Uncles returned with True Entertainment in March 2023, marking a renewed collaborative spark and a fresh musical direction.
