About the Band

Haunted Stereo are an alt-folk/ indie/ experimental six-piece line-up from Southampton.

Originally founded in late 2007, the band plays over 15 instruments between them. Creating intricate layers of sound with an array of melodic instruments – including banjo, mandolin, accordion, piano, violin, recorder, electric guitar, melodica and percussion - , Haunted Stereo are very much about the thrills and fun that is to be had from playing live music together.

The band have supported numerous critically acclaimed acts such as Rough Trade prodigees The Veils, folk-hero Johnny Flynn, neo-orchestral cult act The Irrepressibles and American jazz swing act Hot Club of Cowtown, as well as pop gems Thomas Tantrum and Micachu and The Shapes. But the group are also very much embedded in the local Southampton Scene, frequently playing for nights such as Ejector Seat and Long Live Rock'n'Roll.

Following their debut EP "In Bars", Haunted Stereo released their second EP "Tree House" on 28th March 09 on Whoopsydaisychain Records, and the title tracks of both have been played on Xfm, BBC6 Music and BBC1, amongst others.

"It's so lovely when you discover something genuinely beautiful." (Q Music on Cross the Sea)

“A quirky mix of alt-folk, country and indie.” (Tom Robinson, BBC6)

"'Technical nous, collective enthusiasm, melodic triumphalism and genre shredding powers of arrangement." (The Fly Live Review)

"Haunted Stereo have a twee-folk multi-instrumental technicolour sound that is pleasingly popular at present, showcasing the range of sound and the spine-tingling imagination that some people having fun playing music can create." (God Is In The TV Zine)

"We’ve been watching these guys & gals for a while and we think they’re something special, so go take a closer look." (Call Upon the Author Blog)

"A unique folk edged sound." (digitalgig.co.uk)

"An insistent, caramel junket of string, guitar and bass that juts out at odd angles." (The Stool Pigeon)

"Multi-facetted indie/alt-folk from an exciting young act from sunny Southampton." (Spoonfed)

DrunkenWerewolf readers, get a b&w copy of Issue #9 posted to your
door for £2.00 to any British address or £3.00 internationally.



The issue includes an interview with folk band Mumford & Sons in
celebration of their recent debut Sigh No More, and fellow rising stars
Cherbourg. We've also caught up with Cardiff's The Victorian English
Gentlemens Club and Brighton's Esben & the Witch. As an extension
of Issue #8's AUS101 synopsis, we've interview Melbourne's Cuthbert
& the Night Walkers, and continued the column with IRE101, an
exploration into the Irish music scene, and NM101, an exploration into
the New Mexican music scene. In addition to all of this, we have a
face-off with The Ethical Debating Society and An Axe, and Emily Stern
talks to Venus Bogardus' Hannah Levbarg about her involvement in
various feminist projects.





For more information and to get yourself a copy, go here.

'Ey up,

Woke up the other morning with your song in my head. A sign as any that you've cracked it: an earworm of a tune it is. Needless to say, I think 'Dave' is a classic. Well done you (lot).

Hope the gigs go well

Cheers
