Seerauber Jenny

Seerauberjenny is a project conceived by young human, Fran Barker, multi-instrumental singer/songwriter from North Wiltshire. A lack of interesting activities in the area had led to whole heartedly devoting her time to writing and recording a catalogue of earthy and positively received shoe gazer tunes, before being captured by a Victorian explorer type, willing to display her and her songs in a glass sample cabinet, along with some other exotic specimens.

Boy & Bear

http://www.myspace.com/boyandbearmusic From the moment you first hear Boy & Bear, you’ll know this is something special, something different. Rich harmonies, music that breathes, full of unexpected twists and imagination, a sophisticated timelessness. It’s the sound of an outfit that you’d think has been performing together for years, perhaps decades. Which makes it all the more incredible to discover the five players that make up Boy & Bear are all in their early 20s and their incredible five-track EP, With Emperor Antarctica, is in fact their debut effort.
