***Last.fm scrobbles a different band hence incorrect tags and similar artists.
this is the info you're after: Eric Molumby, Andreas Westhagen, John Stark and Jethro Fox formed Carnival Kids in the autumn of 2010. Bewildering, brassy and ungoverned, these four boys who all met in Liverpool, are to be watched closely.
There is no permanence in their music; there are no regulations in their style, Carnival Kids hold to no boundaries. If only you would give them a listen.

Idle Jack & the Big Sleep truely represents a culmination of varied and diverse musical styles and interests. This is particularly evident in the number of pidgeon holes that have been stuffed into lately by audience and reviewer alike. If you threw all of these comparisons together, you would probably come across an amalgam of Captain Beefheart, Pearl Jam, Radiohead, Pink Floyd, Muse(!?), Mogwai, The Doors(!!!) and a couple of others that can't be remembered (possibly because of their absurdity!).

The Asylum Seekers were a York-based indie band around the turn of the millenium. They never got a professional contract.

Pirate rockin' acoustic troubador! marbled, acoustic songwriter from the North Eastern parts of England. High slung guitar like a chip on the shoulder, throttling out the last breath of each couplet lyric like it might be the last. Punching all the loose notes into a tight melody and performing songs of style ranging from flawed folk to cordened in riot scenes. Sung and strung in stream of conscious tongues, deftly pick pocketed ideas others too lazily executed, then moulding each one into a jack in the box of ideas and originality.
