Truthpaste are a band of five multi-instrumentalists and a trusty computer drum, blending pop, acoustic folk, and electronic music.

Last year they released their popular debut single ‘See You Around’ followed by ‘Bleary Eyes’ with Memorials of Distinction.

Truthpaste is Esmé Lark (Lead Vocals, Saxophone), Theo Murchie (Guitar, Vocals), Claire Sun (Violin, Vocals), Euan McNeill (Bass, Guitar, Vocals), and James Ballarò (Synth, Lapsteel, Guitar).

Truthpaste arrived with a maturity, slickness and resplendence rarely achieved by bands so early in their career. Tapping into the whimsy of trad-folk, yet carried along by a weighty, almost philosophical sense of reflection…blah blah blah, I love Truthpaste. I love this song. The melody, the chorus, the arrangement, it’s all so…just..beautiful. Simply beautiful.- So Young, Tracks of the Year 2025

Blending the sonic worlds of Richard Dawson, Songs: Ohia and The Books, Truthpaste carve out an image of sentimentality and sincerity all while brimming with promise and potential.- DIY
