The Kays Lavelle

From: 24 July 2008

To: 24 July 2008

plus Mersault + Barn Owl + Ross Clark. Blair St, free.

Originally an acoustic 2- piece from Dundee, Scotland, The Kays Lavelle ", play wistful acoustica and have been described as "dark and beautiful." They released debut EP I Can't Believe You're Here in June ‘06 and since then have had the good fortune to play shows with the likes of iLiKETRAiNS, Kid Harpoon, The Wave Pictures, Make Model, FOUND, Meursault, Chris Difford, Her Name Is Calla, Glissando and others. Influenced in no small part by the facial hair of The Band and the step to the side and chop technique adopted by Daniel Larusso in Karate Kid I, they ventured into the world of film with a documentary about the making of the EP which was released by award winning Scottish film maker Matty "MJ" Ross in July '07 - www.sleepysoul.co.uk

MEURSAULT "Clasping together starry-eyed electronica with cotton-picking wreaths of banjo plucks and ukulele strums, their debut album Pissing On Bonfire/Kissing With Tongues is an unassuming triumph of glum-pussed Scottish charm that cradles its knees like a sombrely-lit fusion of Postal Service and King Creosote. Frontman Neil Pennycook's piping rasp is the cornerstone of this resplendent quartet - incoherent, insatiable and entirely indomitable - yet, so deep are the surrounding caveats of sensor-tingling phonics, it takes myriad spins to uncover his voluptuous drawl." - Drowned In Sound

What are RSS Feeds?

RSS feeds allow you to see when websites have added new content. You can get the latest headlines and stories in one place, as soon as they are published, without having to visit the websites you have taken the feed from.

How do I start using feeds?

In general, the first thing you need is something called a feed reader. This is a piece of software that checks the feeds and lets you read any new articles that have been added. There are many different versions, some of which are accessed using a browser, and some of which are downloadable applications. IE 7.0 has a good feed reader built in, otherwise try Feedreader.
