   About Beth Jeans Houghton
NOTHING TELLS MEMORIES FROM ORDINARY MOMENTS, ONLY AFTERWARDS DO THEY CLAIM REMEMBERANCE ON ACCOUNT OF THEIR SCARS - CHRIS MARKER, LA JET'EE ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In the past year 18 year old Newcastle based singer/songwriter Beth Jeans Houghton has garnered a reputation as an antidote to the current?crop of acoustic songstresses. With her alternative blend of experimental folk, Beth has been hailed by the NME as "a Joni Mitchell for the anti-folk generation". With influences ranging from Frank Zappa, Vashti Bunyan, Fourtet and Love, Beth has cultivated a sound that is truly her own. Since her first performance in August 06 Beth has played alongside a diverse collection of artists such as Imogen Heap, The Wombats, Fionn Regan, Jeffrey Lewis, The Mystery Jets, Scott Matthews, Josephine Foster, White Magic, King Creosote, Jana Hunter, Alasdair Roberts, PG Six, Dead Meadow, Phosphorescent, Voice of the Seven Woods, Tom Brosseau, St Vincent, Euros Childs, Diane Cluck, Jack Savoretti and Stephen Fretwell amongst others. At last years Greenman Festival Devendra Banhart invited Beth to play one of her songs during his set on the main stage to an 8000 strong crowd describing her as, 'very lovely, a musical magician'. Beth has a track on ‘We Are All Circling The Stars’ (compilation - Cosmos Recordings) and another on ‘Bearded Ladies Vol II’ (compilation –Bird/Finders Keepers) both out spring 08. Beth is currently writing/recording, and is gigging regularly throughout the UK.------ Management ------ Tim McConway – White Cat Music------ timmcconway@googlemail.com------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Babies * masks * clocks * Icing * Dulcimers * gold * air * wheels * radiator * keys * beards * hair * mouths * feet * backs * four tracks * banana cake * Noah and Eli * Jethro * feathers * the cumberland arms * number 287 on my keyboard * lake louise * veins * pregnant women * number 88 on the casio *accesories * these days * eyebrows * mrs ash * canada * San Francisco * dusty skies * dawn * time * cottages * log fires * wood * deer * elk * jesmond dene * 22 * 2 * 222 * ukulele * mandolin * the roches * jana hunter * finger nails * Hubbles universe * the national geographic society * paper * peace * descision * croak * apple oil * supernoodles * lemon curd * totals * mistakes * wrist * parsnip * sweet potato * sweet potato on toast * sweet potato with flora and pepper * alotments * hidings * dreams * wanders * ganders * heaton * pro tools * my guitars * david houghton * christine jeans * ben jeans houghton * Rosa hope rea crowley bennet * rosa's hair * my doorstep * the view from it * morning skies * eve skies * spring * in both senses * black eyes * pictures * drawings * time * cello * harp * Baby dee * vashti bunyan * horse * lake district * grasmere * unicorns * music * ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- JOIN BETH'S FACEBOOK FANPAGE!!!

Long time, no see. Come along to this and it would be 'short time, see, probably not say that much', but it'd be good. I read your review in NARC. It was good. I remember we used to play gigs together. Myra and Adolf.

Buy 'Sweetness, Yes!' from itunes!

Instantly likable simple pop played with passion and integrity. Happy music.
(Rating: 5/5)

Babysue

My first encounter with Moira Stewart, for their debut album, is a straight shot of joy. This has put one big smile on my face.

Vital Weekly

.

Incurably cute and frisky, once the lids lifted off 'Sweetness, Yes!' its like a summer holiday schools out parade. Bonkers but superb with it.

Losing Today

Here’s an album to put a smile on your face. Sweetness, Yes! is a joyful mix of 80’s synths, indie guitars and quirky sampling.

Buzzin music blog

Album of the week (13th March 2008)
Huw Stephens Radio 1

A joyous carousel of fun and glad tidings.
Skipping around the electro/pop minefield with giddy abandon

The Crack

This hugely impressive debut could teach Hot Chip a lesson in the art of concise, punchy songwriting .

Narc Magazine

we got a crap review from teletext as well.
