Creeper are a leaderless, democratic trio from South Africa consisting of bassist Dan Wilson, saxophonist Luke Townsend and drummer Wesley Gibbens. They originally got together in 2001 to record their first album 'Time it Was', an eclectic mix of acid-jazz, sparse groove and funk. On their second album 'Tune the Moon' (2005), the group supplemented their stripped-down approach with extra instruments such as synthesizer, melodica and flute. Creeper produce a musical mix that is peculiar to South Africa where Africa meets Europe meets the Blues meets Brazil ... the spirit of versatility is driven by a vast array of grooves that drummer Wesley Gibbens plays from intense drum 'n bass and funk stylings to blissed-out reggae and ambient textures. On the second album they incorporate Durban-based rapper EWOK on two tracks 'Sleep Talking' and 'Keep on Walking', which give the album an unpredictable flavour. We hope you enjoy the music.
