SHOWET ER AFLYST, ØV, ØV, ØV!!
Ted Leo is an American human being made from the inspirational parts of Billy Bragg, The Jam, The Pogues and the english new wave. These extremities are united in a trunk with hardcore background and a heart of oak with a tendency to mod revival, a strong Celtic epidermis, punk rocker enthusiasm and much hurry. Leo continues to be the hanging bridge between the spirit of 1979 powerpop and modism and the self-sufficiency and political rage of 80's hardcore.
In 2010 La Castanya licenced from Matador Records Ted Leo's "The Brutalist Bricks" album.Rebecca Gates has been in the world of music for twenty years now and is recognized for being The Spinanes singer and songwriter, one of the most unique bands of the nineties. Sub Pop released their three albums and they toured with bands like Fugazi and Stereolab. Throughout her career Gates has always been involved in music and art and has collaborated with musicians such as Elliott Smith, Laetitia Sadier or Willie Nelson and bands like The Decemberists and Joan Of Arc.
"The Float", her new album, has been released in Europe by La Castanya and confirms that Rebecca Gates is a unique songwriter and performer.
Bög er efterhånden ved at være gammel i gårde på den Aalborgensiske musikscene siden. Han var med i bandet Bought Landings way back, da Aalborg husede et stort indie-slæng, der blandt andet sværgede til Modest Mouse og Pavement. Disse inspirationskilder anes stadig, men der er skruet ned for både søjudladningerne og tempoet, og et nummer som ”Time When We Fall” er et godt eksempel på, hvordan Bøg uden et væld af virkemidler formår at skrive smukke og iørefaldende sange.
