Plaid

The London duo Ed Handley and Andy Turner began their recording collaboration as Plaid while they were still part of Black Dog Productions. The initial Plaid album, 22422, was launched in 1991. In 1995, Ed and Andy concluded their five-year partnership with Ken Downie and departed from The Black Dog. That year, Plaid also released the 5002 EP and started focusing their efforts on Plaid full-time.
