HEY PEOPLE, we rarely check this e-hole of a myspace profile for messages and such, cos we are laaaaazy and that. But don't let that stop you leaving messages here, just don't expect a reply the same month. Or season. Alternatively you can find us on facebook. Pretty sure we're the only Little Neemo there.
I'd give you my phone number, but hell, I've only just met you.
-----------------------------------------
Little Neemo come from Manchester and write songs that blend beautiful thoughts and bitterness in equal measure - hymns to disaffection, drunkenness and lost love that should mean something to everyone who's ever taken comfort in liquor and woken up in their shirt and tie, their arms crossed over their chest like a good dead knight who's fallen in his armour, cursing themselves for letting their dreams slip away from them. The band hope their songs evoke the timeless songs of loss of Hank Williams, the high and lonely country of Will Oldham and the fuzzy shimmer of Mazzy Star to mention just a few reference points.
There's loads more Neemo for download on http://www.last.fm/music/Little+Neemo/Traces
Go get 'em my darlings.
There's also a tune on the Blowout website (www.blowout.org.uk) - called Andalusia, it's a wee song about Manchester that pretends to be about a region in Spain.
Heres what some people have said about Little Neemo
MOG of ALL FM- "I f***ing love Little Neemo"
GUY GARVEY (ELBOW), INTERVIEWED IN THE NME, 22 OCTOBER 2005 - "My Favourite New Bands: Little Neemo.... They're from Manchester. They're like modern folk music. Gavin the lead singer tells a lot of stories with his lyrics There's a particularly great tune Enemy Aces which I'm very fond of.
DAVID SUE IN THE MANCHESTER EVENING NEWS, 01 SEPTEMBER 2006 - "Neemo are that rarest of things in Manchester music right now - a genuinely rough (but passionately adored) musical gem, that's stubbornly intent on retaining those rough, but beautifully unhinged edges. ... Trailing through the barfly pop troubadour lineage of Tom Waits, Johnny Cash and Will Oldham, Little Neemo compose songs for the lost-in-love, the weatherbeaten underdog drowning his sorrows in the backroom of a low-rent Manchester pub."
CITY LIFE, APRIL 2005 - "a rare treat, well within the realms of story telling, ... as Friday turns into Saturday in some cold, desolate corner of the city at least something is beginning to make sense. Rave on, Sadchester."
MANCHESTER MUSIC WEBSITE - "This is real city life set to song and well worth checking out."
PAPERCUT ZINE - "Their melodic tunes are lyrically mesmerizing and powerfully real."
