Lights in a Fat City was a collaboration between Eddy Sayer, percussion, hybrid harp; Kenneth Newby, sulings, p'iri, samples; and Stephen Kent, didgeridoo, animal horns.Lights In A Fat City released three albums - "Somewhere" (1988), "Sound Column" (1993) and "Memory Ground" (1999).
Thier unique sound is an amalgamation of deep textures, rich drones (thanks to the expansive sound of the didgerdoo) and a fondness for tribal atmospherics.
''we’d go down to Camden Lock Market in north London and set up our instruments on a magic carpet, Eddy would put a bunch of hand percussion and a couple of small drums and I would have my didj and a selection of rattles, cymbals and sticks. We’d play, sometimes all day, for fun and put out the hat. In 1985 we hung out with Kenneth Newby and recorded our market jams''
