    Summary

    The beginning of The Undercroft was inconspicuous, by all means. The Feldcroft-based band found its beginnings in frontman Sebastian Sallow and his twin sister Anne’s trio with keyboardist Ominis Gaunt. Despite this grouping forming both the foundations of the group’s sound as well as its well-known name, the famous duo of Sallow and frontwoman MC, as she’s come to be known in her solo career, formed in 1996 when MC’s family moved to Feldcroft from Bristol.

    “[Sebastian] lived next door,” she tells me, half-laughing when I ask her about the pair’s first meeting. “He played all hours of the day.”

    “Who knows what might have happened if they’d picked some other hamlet?” Sallow says, shrugging. “I, for one, am glad [she] knocked down my door that summer.”
