The Broken Family Band
'That the tumbleweed-strewn streets
of Cambridge have thrown up a gem of the calibre of The Broken Family Band
is a joyous surprise. They're four whiskey-sodden, flannel-wearing,
sensitive types who shit for breakfast the kind of ragged alt.country that
makes the output of Will Oldham so invigorating.' - NME

Lionshare
'With all the stately dolorousness of
early Leonard Cohen, they combine guitar, cello, and melancholy with strong,
quiet hands. Its beautiful, mood-swung, post-psych folk'. - The Wire

Adam John Killip & The Tailors
'.....if Adam John Killip and his Rusty
String Breakers are any sign, then good ol' tin shack rattlin', hoedown
scarin' country-punk is alive and well in the Leeds suburbs. Their '80%
Proof' (Blind Bear) tells of the consequences of taking advantage of Leeds'
many happy hours: "Two for one is my only excuse / for drinking 80% proof".
Let that be a warning kids.' - Leeds Guide |

David Thomas Broughton
'...layers of banshee-esque vocals, looped
on a delay pedal, constantly adding and expanding. For a while he is
hypnotic, and for a while his gentle lament makes every cigarette smell like
incense.. ' - Leeds Music Scene
