Following hot on the reels of a sell out Cassette only print, Irony Bored Records [& Tapes] are pleased to announce the full European digital, vinyl and CD release of Cate Le Bon’s magnificent debut album Me Oh My!****************************************
**************************************************************************
A new force in song craft, Le Bon grew up in Cardiff’s infamous French quarter and befitting a songwriter who only writes in the dark, this album is a heady and highly personal Gallic stew of equal parts Nico, Malkmus and the chronicler’s own emotional observations on the impossibility of existence. ****************************************************
Artfully composed with a classic five a side formation, this carefully constructed album boasts a concise palette of instrumentation played live by Cate and a fluid band of close friends. Perfectly illuminating her writing skills with understated menace and beauty.
