Ninja Tune recording artists, Grasscut, are Andrew Phillips, an award-winning film and television composer with over 100 screen credits, and Marcus O’Dair who plays bass (classically trained), keyboards, and stylophone. Marcus is also a freelance journalist and radio DJ and both of them were in the band Passenger, a group whose electronica-tinged balladry riffed on the pop pathos of bands like Coldplay and Snow Patrol.

Grasscut made their live debut at the Loop Festival in August 2008 in the UK. "Muppet" is their debut album on the exceptional Ninja Tune label. They are at home now with such extraordinary artists like: Amon Tobin, Kid Koala, Bonobo, Daedelus, Thunderheist, and many, many more!

"Muppet" incorporates gorgeous layers of music and atmospheric textures. Soft, soothing vocals, tingling piano, and electronic injections spiral and swirl majestically painting a musical picture. Its a wonderful kaleidoscopic beauty.
