Jordan hails from Paris, France. « French weirdos with no bass » would be a fast sum up...The band appears as a trio (guitar/drums/keyboards) and cultivates its outsider character. Imagine three boys born in a small french city in the 1980's, raised in the 1990's culture that melt joyously european post punk, anything noisy born in America anf french no-wave and art rock heritage. That mix can't be separated from a certain french touch you can feel in the vocals deliberately sung in a cute broken english. The lyrics, pretty ironic, make references to a various range of sources (from Melville's Whale to Defoe's Pirates, Dennis Wilson tragic destiny, mexican legends, Lavey's parties or diy voodoo...).
It sounds lo-fi, naive, sometimes melancolic and might be a surprise in the indie scene. .

Voici une nouvelle affiche qui sera dispo en A3 sérigraphié très bientôt. Mon plan de carrière de cette rentrée étant donc de rééditer, en sérigraphie uniquement, toutes les anciennes affiches (Fucked up, Why, Lightning Bolt etc etc) et de les trocer contre des pintes les soirs de concerts ou au pire quelques euros...
A venir : Flyer et affiche pour la tournée européenne de Keelhaul, et peut être une affiche sérigraphiée pour la date Isis/Keelhaul/Circle au Trabendo/Paname.
Welcome back to America. I'll be seeing you when you play with Cure for the Radio, I just won't be playing drums with 'em this time around! Shall be grand either way.
