   Turin Brakes: General Info
Member Since10/12/2006
Band Websitehttp://www.turinbrakes.com
Band MembersOlly Knights and Gale Paridjanian. Joined on stage and in the studio by Rob Allum, Eddie Myer and L'il Phil Marten.
InfluencesMiles Davis to Fugazi and back again. We tend to pass all our influences through the genre of folk tinged indie rock, but being English the idea of putting ourselves into a genre in the first place makes us want to tear our man flesh suits off, but that’s not your fault. Some have said we make a sweet spine tingling kind of noise while others say we are "quietly seething." Some even say we rock like monkeys! Here’s what we say..... You decide.
Sounds Like We sound a bit like a cowboy from the old west in the streets of 21st century London who is being forced at gun point by his own shadow to confess his hopes and fears into an old tape recorder for uses unknown, with lots of guitars, beats and harmonies ricocheting off the concrete canyons all around....

At our core we are a music making / song writing duo more than a little obsessed with guitars, however we like to play with other people and our band: Rob, Ed and L'il Phil have been in the frame for a long time. We have a crazy lovely fan base who keep us in business and we feel like our best is just ahead of us - like a giant golden carrot leading us on and on, down a road, across a field and into a brown sack.... They will have to kill us to stop us.

Pop Music Lovers of the United Kingdom!

Nick Leese of Heyday Mail Order has made it easy for you to order my latest cd, A Song for Me, A Song for You within your own home nation!  Visit his website, the self-described “home of specialist music delights….from around the globe” and purchase at once.

Need convincing? Read the following review from Aaron Kupferberg’s Powerpopaholic blog:

 “Scott writes sweet melodic piano pop in the tradition of the 60's and 70's with a Tin Pan Alley touch. The title track is an intro to "This Little Samba" a bossa nova beat driven tune that recalls those light Burt Bacharach songs with a wry humor about a wandering mojo. Todd Rundgren fans will surely appreciate the bouncy "The First Assault Upon My Day" which sounds like it fell off of Something/Anything. Scott's diverse influences are both immediate and enjoyable. The wonderful "Real Estate" shows off some excellent arrangements that recall mid 70's McCartney with true affection.  Even with the hilarious ending song "Start the Day" you can't help think of Brian Wilson in the sandbox making up the words as he goes along.” (on CD).

Excellent mix of sounds, styles, embraces some pretty nice steady rhythmical
music wrapped around some interesting sweet laid back vocals.  I was listening to the title track "Painkiller". Great tune. Nice tune and great harmonies and everything actually. I also liked "Full of stars" especially the way it came in from the intro.
Again the dynamic voice and this time with the sweet backing of the band and melodic piano. Great bio. The influences are interesting as well. Well written.

Stay cool and let the music continue to be great

Regards
