Lo-Fi

Ov marks the first duo recording collaboration between longtime collaborators and partners Christine Boepple (Whysp, Softwar, The Franciscan Hobbies, The Skygreen Leopards Skyband, Kyrgyz, etc) and Jewelled Antler's Loren Chasse (Of, Thuja, The Child Readers, The Franciscan Hobbies, Softwar, The Blithe Sons, Coelacanth, etc), both of San Francisco. Building off of Chasse’s recent solo recordings as Of, the duo’s Ov project features loop-based compositions that incorporate strummed strings and otherworldly sounds.

Coldair is a solo project of a multi-instrumentalist Tobiasz Biliński known from the band Kyst. Acoustic and electric guitars combined with improvisation and gentle singing sum up to create minimalistic, intimate music and sound landscapes. The debut LP "Persephone" will be released on Gingerbread Records in September 2010, followed by an almost 1,5 month long release-tour around Europe. http://www.myspace.com/coldairmusic

John Dwyer (of Coachwhips, Pink and Brown, Landed, Yikes, Burmese, The Hospitals, Sword & Sandals, Superpit, The Drums, The Trawgs, Zeigenbock Kopf and Dig That Body Up It's Alive!) is in Thee Oh Sees and he seems to be making this band the most serious project. He's done everything from noise to death metal to punk and now this.
Thee Oh Sees are no doubt the lightest of his excursions, but it also shows what may be his very essence. It's obvious that he loves music and wants to experience it all, touch every aspect, and give it all a go.

Having tirelessly worked on their craft since inception just over twelve months ago, (and rapidly becoming one of the buzz bands of 2009 in the process), legendary producer John Mitchell (Funeral For A Friend / Kids In Glass Houses / Enter Shikari / You Me At Six) expressed an interest in working with the band and has now captured the energetic and upbeat sound of Pegasus Bridge perfectly. The melodies are simple and beautiful; the songs rock while remaining delicate and intricate. They are fresh-sounding and timeless; and most importantly, all come packed with hooks that could land a shark.
