The story
The Hepburns are a Welsh indie band from Llanelli. They formed in January 1985 and have recorded fifteen albums, multiple singles, and four BBC sessions in their 40 year career. Following a two-year tenure at London’s Records from 1987–1989, they have released records on Berkeley-based label , Spanish label , Welsh labels and , as well as on their own label. They toured the US and Scandinavia in 2007.
Born of the post-punk, indie boom of the early-80s, but with their roots in the 1960s, their sound is an amalgam of indie guitar pop with Burt Bacharach, Jake Thackray, and Jonathan Richman, a style fast becoming known in Carmarthenshire as ‘Thackarich’.
