Bio
The Jilted Brides are a psychedelic folk/electronic duo from Melbourne, Australia. Psychedelic in the original Greek means 'clarifying the soul'. Our album 'Larceny of Love' was recorded in Australia but released in Pittsburgh in 2009. Larceny is divided into two 'sides' - psychedelic ballads then mystical soundscapes called 'electronic hymns'. Nicole writes and produces the songs. She has a long background in electronica (B(if)tek, Artificial) and also more recently, folk rock (Dust). Tanya sings, and is also a video artist and photographer. We sound a little like a cross between Leonard Cohen, and The Carpenters, Boards of Canada and Lee Hazelwood, Brigid Bardot leaning against the easy snap and click of drum machines, old organs and '70s synthesizers. Our 808 has been drinking. Many thanks to some special people who did some session work on the album: Mark Gardiner (guitar), Gavin Vance (bass) and Graham Lee (pedal steel). We were also very honored to work with Kuba Fiedorowicz, who is one of the most gifted visionary painters in the world. Kuba created the artwork for 'Larceny of Love'. Since 2008, we have played at festivals in Canada and venues in New York, Portland and Pittsburgh, as well as spending time as artists in residence around the country. We are currently working on a gothic art film. You can download MP3s and buy the actual CD from CD Baby: http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/jiltedbrides Larceny of Love is also available through iTunes and all major digital distributors.
