TURIN
BRAKES: THE WAIT IS OVER
New album 'Outbursts'
released 1st March. New single 'Sea Change' released 22nd February.
Turin Brakes,
(Olly Knights and Gale Paridjanian), have announced they will be releasing
a new studio album, Outbursts, on Monday 1st March on Cooking Vinyl. The
album will be preceded by a single, Sea Change, on Monday 22nd February.
Watch out for a free download for the album on 20th January from their
website.
Having redefined the acoustic genre with their debut album, The Optimist
LP which was short-listed for the Mercury Music Prize in 2001, the pair
went on to release a string of superlative collections which saw them
gradually expand on their original sound and vision.
Now, with their new album, Outbursts, Olly and Gale have rediscovered
the working practices that got them started in the first place, and with
it their old sense of mission. Written, produced and (for the most part)
performed entirely by the two of them, the album is a collection of songs
that returns to the essence of Turin Brakes, and not only echoes the quiet,
edgy genius of their most celebrated work, but surpasses it. “We thought
'Let's go back and do this whole thing like we used to',” Gale says. “Do
it as a duo. That's where the magic is.”
In March, Turin Brakes will be touring the UK to promote the album. Tickets
are on sale now and cost between £16.50 and £22.50, but may
be subject to a booking fee. Full dates as follows:
9 Mar BIRMINGHAM, Glee Club
10 Mar BRISTOL, St. Georges
11 Mar OXFORD, Academy 2
13 Mar MANESTER, Academy
14 Mar YORK, Duchess
16 Mar GATESHEAD, Sage
17 Mar SHEFFIELD, City Hall

FIONN
REGAN: THE SHADOW OF AN EMPIRE
**** Q
**** Uncut
**** mojo
Never one to take
the easy route, Fionn could easily have made a safe and predictable follow-up
to “The End Of History”, his 2007 Mercury-nominated and critically lauded
debut, and simply recorded another collection of beguiling acoustic beauties.
But Fionn has returned with a very different second album bursting
with ideas and a set of dazzling new tunes which are sure to reaffirm
his reputation as both maverick genius and one of the most talented contemporary
singer-songwriters around… If The End of History was the sound of the
countryside and woodland lanes The Shadow Of An Empire is the sound of
towns and dimly lit streets...
The album is receiving some great reviews, with Q, Mojo and Uncut all
giving the album 4 out of 5 stars. It will be released on 8th February.
Fionn tours in February:
13 Feb Glasgow King Tut’s
14 Feb York Fibbers

NOKO
SCORES FRENCH MOVIE
Noko scores his first
full length feature film, the stylish French political thriller Une Affaire
D'Etat, to excellent reviews.
Porté par le score envoûtant de Noko (un thème
principal d'exception et des notes lancinantes qui nous suivent bien longtemps
après la fin de la projection), Eric Valette transcende le cadre
bien trop souvent étriqué d'un thriller français
de plus pour faire souffler le lyrisme d'un western mélancolique
dans les décors d'un Paris crépusculaire.
Noko also played most of the instrumentation, and produced the score himself.
Only 3 other tracks are included on the soundtrack - one by Ennio Morricone,
and another especially written and performed for the end titles by Noko
& Howard Devoto.
The Original Soundtrack is out on Milan Music.
Directed by Eric Vallette (One Missed Call), Une Affaire D'Etat stars
Andre Dussollier, Rachida Brakni and Thierry Fremont, and premieres in
Paris Nov 23.
Noko and the rest of Apollo 440 are putting the finishing touches to their
fifth album, for release in the New Year. Noko has also been playing guitar
in the reformed Magazine

K-GEE
: WE RUN THINGS
"Jamie
Cullum's fifth album does justice to his musical influences: from the
Portishead-tinged If I Ruled The World to the wonky groove of We Run Things
co-written and produced by Karl Gordon aka (KGee) it's bold, experimental
and the best thing Cullum's done." released on Nov 9th.
JOE
CANG : BELLA SIGNORINA
The single "BELLA SIGNORINA" precedes the album’s release and picks up where last summer’s hit ‘Making Love’ left off. Encapsulating Joe Cang’s joie de vivre, “Bella Signorina” tells the tale of a man falling for a woman who he sees everyday when she takes her duck for a walk. That’s right…a duck. What’s not to like?

new album. The results are sounding amazing – harking back to The Optimist-era
sound. Their Dark On Fire track meanwhile is already something of a cult
stir on YouTube amongst Gossip Girl fans following its recent sync. Mixing
on the album starts soon, so expect to hear the rest of the new material
before too long.

Regan. He'll be touring the UK and US throughout the autumn. The majority
of these shows had been booked prior to his Mercury nomination so expect

NEW
ART BRUT ALBUM OUT NOW!!
International indie hit makers Art Brut have released
their new album, It's A Bit Complicated. Produced by Dan Swift (Snow Patrol,
Kasabian), the bands second album sees Eddie Argos and co growing up,
writing some punk songs, and being a bit confused about adult life in
London.
After debut album Bang Bang Rock & Roll launched Art Brut's career
as a world-wide cult act, the band spent 2 years touring Europe, USA,
and even playing shows in Russia, Mexico and Brazil. After supporting
Oasis in Germany the band found themselves on the cover of Rolling Stone,
and a Berlin university gave lectures on their lyrics. Said Eddie Argos,
"It's amazing! It was called the 'Depressive Dandy', apparently they
think I'm an intellectual. I tell them that I'm not, but they don't believe
me. I'm an idiot! I'm drunk!"
Drunk or sober, It's A Bit Complicated is a critics favourite around the
world. From Pitchfork to NME and The Guardian, the album has been receiving
rave reviews. After selling out their biggest UK tour to date, Art Brut
are spending the summer performing at festivals around the world before
returning to headline duty in Germany and USA in autumn.
Despite all the praise, Eddie has a simple outlook. "If you're in
a band you want to be successful, but we began just to make friends with
people. I want to be friends with Lyndsay Lohan now. It's my new aim!"
