uh is the brother/sister duo of Dominic and Fionnuala Kennedy. Born as the before-you-know-it fusion of readymade interests, uh united bedroom-burbling hardware jams, video-graphic performance art, spoken word, and a shared intrigue in the pastoral and the preconscious. It wasn’t long before uh would find a footing in the London DIY scene.
Over time, they’ve honed a cathartic, live, experimental acid-trancelike uplifter sound, touching on their Irish heritage, magical pastoral idylls, and staple styles from breakbeat to broken beat to balladry. 2019's ’Seasick in Salts’ and debut LP ‘humanus’ (2023) saw back-to-back releases on PRAH Recordings, and serve as evidence of their ecstatic, heart-on-sleeve sweats. New EP 'pleroma' comes in Spring 2025 .
Their live shows are more heart-in-mouth, making ludicrous use of machines abstracted from their original intent. Fionnuala exploits a pitch module, echo, and live looping unit, producing freq-pranged monologues and cantos; Dominic wrenches the knobs on various Rolands, Doepfers and sequencers, causing juddering glitches in the system.
