Northern Shanty Rock. Or, if you prefer, 'unsigned gaybos from Hove', as a girl who saw our recent show in Exeter put it.
U's debut is indeed Super ... it's got a rollicking joyful pop punch. 8/10 . – John Earls, Teletext
Strong vocals, the reinvention of the flute and witty, tale-telling lyrics atop slick, literate music - where have this lot been hiding? - James Ellis, Metro
Space cadet indie folk for stoners ... should be poncing about in chaffeur driven limos before the year is out - Front Magazine
Beautifully played and produced .... the kind of music you want to keep turning up - The Line of Best Fit
Gorgeous melodic brilliance - ATT100 Radio Show, Radio Reverb
Something altogether more interesting. Idyllic summer pop with hints of Belle and Sebastian you’re going to hear more about - Brighton SOURCE.
Incarnations are what emerging indie-folksters Super U do best - a little bit of Belle and Sebastian here, a touch of Camera Obscura’s pop genius there. Genuinely lovely -
Sarah Walters, Manchester Evening News/City Life
Llilting, cool melodies, songs of beauty that saunter and swagger, with gentle hooks and breezy vocals that cling to your brain like a superglued limpet - The Devil Has the Best Tuna Blogspot
With unanimous praise towards the latest song and quirky accompanying video, it’s about time the group got the nationwide thumbs up - Stranger Magazine
Super U return with a brilliant new single - Latest 7 Magazine
KING PORTER STOMP with TIN ROOTS @ THE BRUNSWICK, SAT DEC 12TH.
We're very happy indeed to have been invited back to play a Christmas show at the Brunswick. We're gonna be joined by our festival friends and wicked roots reggae groovers, Tin Roots, so expect a whole lotta skanking and stomping around with the odd mince pie chucked in.
We'll be fresh from our South West mini tour and it'll be the last chance to catch us play before we go into hibernation to record our new album at the beginning of the new year...we may even give you a sneaky taster of what's in store...it's gonna be fat and funky for sure. We're planning knocking 2009 on the head with a bang so please come down and experience us burning off all the calories we've got and lifting the roof in a proper stomping party stylee.
It's hopefully gonna be rammed so please get your tickets in advance to avoid disappointment, and they're cheaper!
