Yard Nule is an experimental duo consisting of multi-instrumentalists/composers Hugh Vincent & Ben Griffith.
Since their first release in 2019, the duo has built an extensive catalog of pieces,
accompanied by visuals from Newcastle based artist and printmaker Jake Hollings.
With thirty individual releases including two studio albums, the pair has garnered a reputation for
creating an immersive listening experience rich in melodic and harmonic detail.
Yard Nule's music has been featured on many Spotify editorial playlists, BBC Introducing, BBCR3, BBC 6 music,
Tsubaki FM, and Worldwide FM culminating in millions of online streams. Yard Nule have also completed several large-scale commissions:
Unseen Forms (2022), an installation created in collaboration with
Dr. Richard Collins and Sheffield University in which users were able to explore a water network
using a limited set of senses and are challenged to maintain control of the system
based on an ever evolving musical landscape.
Torrent (2023) which premiered at Adeleide Fringe 2023 winning several awards
and featured motion capture dance choreographed by Lewis Major,
stunning real-time particle effects by Megaverse, poetry
by Yankunytjara / Kokatha poet Ali Cobby Eckermaand. Yard Nule's ambitious and ecclectic forthcoming release 'TURBOMAXULTRA' features
twelve 2000s inspired 3D worlds by Hugh Vincent and a 14 track CD album.
