NEW BROOM - from BOUNCE AROUND album. This looks better when it's playing.
NEW BROOM - MINISNAP
Minisnap .. a bit like The Bats but with Kaye singing her songs which aren't really much like The Bats. Hearing is believing. Pop / Folk / Punk / Pure?
UPDATE September 2009 . The Bats toured UK and Europe on an album release tour - May/June 2009 then Australia in July. Minisnap took the back seat. 2 song collaboration 7" with John White of Mestar is due for release later this year. Next project is to combine 1st 2 EP's and Cloudberry 7" for a remastered CD release album.
BOUNCE AROUND CD out on Magic Marker in USA - featured on heaps of CMJ radio stations and Top Ten action - 7 on Bagel radio in SF, 6 on WKNC in NY, 3 on WCWM in VA, 6 on WTBU in Boston, 5 on KRLX in MN. Scored a glowing review at www.Billboard.com and 4 star (out of 5) review in the London Sunday Times and album of the week at Rough Trade!! BUY ALBUM either as digital download or CD's. Search Google for availablity in you zone. Also New Broom single available on Stolen Recordings through iTunes UK/ Europe stores.
.. these songs fly on delicate wings .. lovely songs to be found here. From New Broom’s skiffley melodies, Wintersweet’s minor key confection, to the soaring Big Blue Sky, Woodward’s voice and the assured playing is highly infectious”.
Gavin Bertram, Real Groove, Feb 2008
The Press - Vicki Anderson says "This is a a gorgeous collection of pop songs...so bright and fresh you can practically see them sparkle...Pure pretty pop with passion."
