Influences
Miles 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.

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).

En écoute, une nouvelle chanson rebelle sur un texte de Christophe E. : "La Ballade Du Réfractaire". Après la "Ballade Des Gens Heureux" ou la "Chanson Du Déserteur", il y a "La Ballade Du Réfractaire"... Bonne journée, Ivan Austral Music
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.
My Dear Turin Brakes, I want you to know that your music and your songs are my passion. I am addicted. There is something pulls me toards them. Keep it up Turin Brakes. Yodi PS:Follow Me Twitter at http://twitter.com/iaent
