LET IT COOK

Mr Egglemon & The Headfish is a three-piece band from Patras, Greece, made up of Andy Papaemmanouil (bass, vocals), Porfirios Tassis (guitar, vocals). Spyros Papadimitropoulos (drums, vocals).

Their music grows out of the energy of a live trio, shaped by layered harmonies and a sound that comes close to indie folk and psychedelic rock. Every song they write is a conversation between melody and rhythm, honesty and playfulness, created to feel both relative and unexpected.

Over the past years we’ve shared their music with audiences in Patras, Athens and across the greek islands, bringing their live energy to small clubs, open air stages and -their personal favorite place-, the street. Each performance feels different and it is.

“Let it cook” is the first official release but the third LP the band has produced and released independently since its formation in 2017. The idea for a professionally produced and thoughtfully completed LP came in 2023 when the members of the band started writing songs individually to, then, be presented to the rest. As the name suggests playfully, we let each other “cook” and then they served them as a whole, while they collaborated with Vassilikos on the album’s production. “Let it cook” breezes through many genres like rock, funk and classical music but without ever agreeing on it, all tracks share the element of folk music.

This collection of songs contains two years of ups and downs and a list of guests that shared the vision with them. During this time, they recorded with other bands for their own projects, they slept in the studio, got soaked in rain and sweat, listened and took notes. The “dish” that they are now serving has travelled a lot but it still feels warm. Caution: Content’s Hot!

“Let It Cook” is out on digital on 14 November and on vinyl LP on 12 December via Inner Ear.
