Well, we did promise something completely different…
From Fennesz and his epic white-wash of sublime noise to significantly more pop-centric fare with Scottish newcomers Copy Haho, currently staking their claim as a little band that can alongside the likes of fellow north-of-the-border types Dananananaykroyd and Frightened Rabbit.
The four-piece – Joe, Rikki, Richard and Stuart – already have a couple of cracking seven-inch releases under their belts, and their newest release, an EP, is sure to raise their profile further. Keep your eyes and ears on them, as 2009 could be very interesting for this band.
See them on tour in February with The Xcerts…
