MAN/WOMAN/CHAINSAW

Man/Woman/Chainsaw are one of the most talked-about new bands to emerge from London’s thriving underground. Formed by childhood friends Billy Ward and Vera Leppänen when they were just 16, the six-piece have quickly built a reputation for exhilarating, art-punk chaos and emotionally charged songwriting, honed the old-fashioned way on the live circuit.

Now signed to Fiction Records, the band have continued their rapid ascent with recent singles “Adam & Steve” and “Only Girl”, both playlisted at BBC 6 Music. Recorded at RAK Studios with producers Seth Evans and Margo Broom, their new material captures the volatile energy and melodic ambition that have made them firm favourites with The Guardian, NME, Rolling Stone UK and more.

Blending taut intensity with shapeshifting dynamics, violin-laced textures and shared vocal interplay, Man/Woman/Chainsaw are inventing something thrillingly new. With their biggest headline tour to date and a debut album on the horizon, they stand confidently at the forefront of a bold new wave of British guitar music.
