InfluencesDon´t want no cryin´violins, no sax, no slide trombones. Don´t want no screaming ya-ya girls, and no honkin´English horns. Don´t want no symphony orchestra with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. All I want is a guitar, harp and drums to set my soul on fire...
Sounds Like"The Postcards have taken their live promise and delivered an e.p. of finely crafted and crisp guitar pop." Indie-mp3 ________________________ "The Postcards have managed to turn to near perfection a nine minute four track debut. Those longing for, and dare I say missing, your quota of jangling bitter sweet cutely turned pop, may do well to retune your radars for this natty little treat." Losing Today ________________________ "Jangly and fast in an early Orange Juice/ Postcard Records way. A fine start. " Penny Black Music ________________________ "Indie-pop darlings." The Music Tourist Board _________________________ "Try and catch them, their Lucksmiths goes Postcard songs are excellent." How Does It Feel To Be Loved ________________________ "Perfect pop played on big red guitars. Indie pop as it was meant to be" Indie Travel Guide _________________________ "If they were from Sweden, they'd be massive." Lost Music ________________________

   About The Postcards
Named in honour of Postcard Records of Scotland, The Postcards are a four-piece band based in Brockley, South London. Their live sets are fast and fun - whizzing through short, sharp blasts of bittersweet guitar-pop, only pausing to mop their brow and say hello.

Ah I love Guided by Voices :-) Thanks Damien. Hopefully we'll have a gig soon and I can see you play again too. I want to get your single asap :-) I'm going to Joe's birthday meal on the 13th, but I think Joe said that you and Vicky would be away.
hopefully catch you soon
