Alfie Templeman – Tragic Love
Only 16 years ago, Alfie Templeman was born in a household full of musical stimuli. His sister is a pianist and plays trumpet, and his dad collects guitars. It was inevitable that Alfie would ask for drum lessons aged just seven years old, and at 13, he installed recording equipment in his bedroom. This is where he writes, records and produces everything he makes.
Templeman just released his second EP, Sunday Morning Cereal on Chess Club Records, home toย Mรย andย Sundara Karma, and renowned for early releases fromย Wolf Alice,ย Jungle, andย Mumford & Sons.
He tells about the EP: โThereโs a lot of r&b and indie coming together in this record. I wanted to experiment a little more with groovy drum beats and โ90s hip hop synths, while keeping the indie slacker vibe of my first EP.โ
Alfie plays every instrument on the EP, and my favourite track off it is Tragic Love, a mid-tempo, bluesy song about a doomed relationship.
