Sounds Like
Monkeys and birds in the Amazon rainforest. An alien lost in space. Staple singers on acid. Dervishes dancing to a Red Red Meat song. Sonic Youth on opium. Dark side of post folk.

Based out of Chicago, IL, Blake/e/e/e (pronounced "Blake-ie") is a new project, finding two members of the Italian band Franklin Delano half relocated to the States, together with American multi-instrumentalists Davy DeLaFuente and Oren Wagner.
Their debut album, Border Radio, will be out in the US April 8, 2008 on FreeFolk Records. The band will embark on a U.S. tour right after (throughout May/June). A Europe Fall release date will soon be announced.
Border Radio is nothing but explosive. Dressed in a folky salsa, it transforms all along its length. From weird dub to house folk celestial, from Sixties candies and psychedelic space ballads to post-punk creepy anthems. From world ethnic spirituals to alt. Country, filled with drones and bones. It's Beach Boys going to church where the church becomes a mutant disco, astral instrumental, howling at the shooting stars.
A self-produced kaleidoscope of new musical ideas makes Border Radio both elegant and experimental.
