The Blood Arm

Mixing Talking Heads with the Flaming Lips

It’s amazing how bands accrue legend. Take for example The Blood Arm from LA; a colourful bunch that feature an actor who has appeared alongside BOTH Robert De Niro and Sabrina the teenage witch, a novelist, a peyote-obsessed pianist and claim to make music for “falling downstairs to”. Their songs and live show are vibrant, pounding affairs mixing the sound of Talking Heads with the surrealism of the Flaming Lips.
