Musically, Hoopy Frood is the result of a range of influences. It is not for the makers to decide on the style they simply serve the music and it makes itself, so they can only quote -Pink Floyd crossed with Shpongle-, -kind of like trippy folk music-, -a unique multidimensional blend of psychedelic-folk and groovy-electro- and our favourite quote -we suspect the work of hippies-.

The original ideas and concepts start with Rich Walgate and Steve Varman who have been working on Floyd/Zep style projects since 2001 before discovering the versatilities of electronic recording and its masters such as Ott and Shpongle. Deep and mystical ideas provide the theme. Then, once the story has been set, it is unleashed upon fellow Froodsters - Chris, Myshell and Ruari - who help to give it life.

Notable performances to date have been supporting Ozric Tentacles in Brighton in March 2005 and the SYNERGY PROJECT at London’s SeOne club, among other memorable evenings in the summer of 2005.

Having now completed the writing and recording of their 2nd album Indigo Child available summer 08 - currently being produced by Ott, the band are starting to knock the rust off of their live set and get out there gigging.
