Bone-melting. Intravenous Cup-a-Soup. Intimacy, depth-channelling beats and shining synth-led harmonies. A unique and bright collage of dead-good. Not for the faint of constitution. For divers not paddlers.Debut record ‘Heterogaster’ released in 2018 took relationship truths, epiphanies about the nature of family, sexuality, and pain and put them in a blender with heaps of Bjork, Kate Bush, Caribou, chia seeds, fresh ginger and tequila. 2019’s Epicadus gave an acoustic, whisper-in-the-ear retelling that was no less of a punch to the place where sad and beautiful memories think they are safe and out of reach.Epic standalone releases ‘Let’s Leap’ and ‘Take Me To A Place’ were collaborative attempts with critically acclaimed Bristol based producer and amazing craftsperson Tim Allen (Bat for Lashes // Adrian Utley) to create the tracks for ‘Pollinator’, although when the decision was made for Pepino to re-produce the tracks to be closer to her demo versions, only ‘Take Me To A Place’ (appearing this time as ‘Tenorion Try’) made the cut onto new LP ‘Pollinator’, scheduled for release on 8th April 2022.‘Pollinator’ offers some of the same cockle-nourishing stick-to-the-side of the glass thickness as previous releases but with a handful of rusty nails thrown in. Carrying an added punky ‘fuck it’ rallying against nationalism and our society’s leaderless descent into the warm, soggy bin of history; Pollinator screams and serenades for alternatives whilst appreciating the beauty and closeness of the moments and connections that really matter as they pass.“Some of the most interesting music this year” - The Guardian "A beautiful record” - Huw Stephens, BBC Radio 1 “I’m absolutely addicted...really affecting and beautiful…I love it” - Lauren Laverne, BBC 6 Music “Absolutely fantastic...one of the debut albums of the year, no question” - John Kennedy, Radio XListed in The Guardian’s Best Contemporary Albums of 2018 “Mesadorm’s Let’s Leap is a welcome shot of undiluted Joy!” - Naomi Klein“I love that, it’s got the chaos of a band like Tuneyards, hints of Caribou esque production in there, the melodic prowess of Kate Bush, they are a force of a band - that is Mesadorm” - Jack Saunders, BBC Radio 1Mesadorm are Blythe Pepino // Aaron Zahl // Jo Silverston // David Johnston // Daisy Palmer

Sophie Jamieson is a London-based songwriter who delivers intimate, visceral, and uncomfortably honest songs. She explores the dips and troughs of mental health, uncompromising examinations of loneliness and character flaw, but always with an underlying strength that promises hope, and growth. Sophie released her first EP, “Where” to critical acclaim in 2013 and was invited on tour by the likes of Marika Hackman, Sivu and Pale Seas. A botched recording experience and a personal breakdown contributed to a withdrawal altogether from music for four years, in which she trained as a cocktail bartender, thinking she’d never make music again. In 2019 however, something changed, and the songs started coming. Since then, Sophie has released two EPs, “Hammer” and “Release”, which examine depression, coping mechanisms and isolation, as well as the effort to rescue oneself.
