Left With Pictures: General Info

Member Since	10/26/2005
Band Website	http://www.leftwithpictures.com
Band Members	Stuart Barter - Robert Wicks - Toby Knowles - Tom Walker - Ed Seed
Influences	--PRESS-- "Beyond brilliant...a band I fell in love with from the first myspace listen" Mike Diver - Drowned in Sound (quotation from this feature) " Left With Pictures are the closest imaginable band to truly embodying that overused 'ensemble' tag convincingly... they have legs enough for walking, swooning, harmonizing and lilting with the very best of their contemporaries." Daniel Ross - Drowned in Sound, from LWP DiScover feature "A band that are currently making many a staff writer weak at the knees; Left With Pictures ‘ new EP Secretly is an enchanting stroke of chamber pop genius." Rich Thane - Line of Best Fit Left With Pictures...combine folk sensibilities with an honest heart that connects with all in the room; genuinely universal themes filtered through a sound that's as pop as it gets when it comes to instant gratification, but also soaked in the woozy melancholy of the finest Arcade Fire. As they step from the stage to play entirely acoustic in the middle of the room, a hush of real reverence descends, and unanimous respect is followed by the sort of applause (and encore requests) regularly reserved for a headline act. Clash Magazine "Like early Belle & Sebastian, fronted by Euros Childs, and gently exposed to jazz" Bella Todd - Time Out Guardian, MySpace Band of the Week "Left with Pictures are a classically trained trio who admit to attempting to recreate the colour, beauty and textures of Debussy and Ravel on a shoestring budget - it is admittedly something which they are close to achieving. ... this inspired gem has bewitched us. ‘Bows and Arrows' is simply enchanting and utterly beguiling, it transcends the normal parameters of pop providing a pretty picture box of ever evolving melodic landscapes. ...deliciously disarms your defences." Losing Today Magazine Banstand Busking - "Professional Help" .. Go here to see the full session. Two more songs plus interview!
