Cabaret Rock - the words and the tune are everything. Sweet melodies, barbed lyrics and beautiful songs.
Bio / Background
Tim (Lyrics and guitar) used to be married to Poppy (Vocals and backing vocals), who works with Jo (Guitar and backing vocals) and is the sister of Johnny (Drums, programming, bass, guitar, piano, vocals, backing vocals and writes the music) who is married to Leilani (Backing vocals). Huw (Bass, tenor horn, baritone horn and backing vocals) and Johnny were at school with Sally (Vocals and backing vocals) and Cathy (Backing vocals).
Hi!
Tim and Johnny have been writing songs together for years, mixing sweet, lyrical music with words that explore the cynicism and anger of modern life, so you won't find any love songs on this album, except perhaps "Japanese Girl", which looks at Internet Porn or "Heather's In Love", which is a love song in a twisted, ironic way ... Oh yes, and "Drifting": a soft song about abandonment and loneliness.
↓ more ↓On the other hand, "Wives And Servants" is a celebration of the 60 as seen through crystal clear hindsight, lit only by "the tiny bonfire of a burning bra" while "Plastic Blow-up Tears" grooves on modern consumerism and "Plenty City" portrays and post-apocalyptical world where "The dogs come drooling, howling your name". Which leaves "Nobel Prize", our tribute to those hash-leavened, late-night certainties and "Redemption", which we all seek to sweeten the dull ache of our guilt.
So that's us and those are the songs. Tell us what you think through the CDBaby site.
