- Captain Kennedy are about to release their second 4-track EP Factory Whistle Call in early October through Vinnie Lovelace Records.
“Factory Whistle Call”, recorded at the Start Together Studios at Belfast’s new Oh Yeah Centre, is not smooth, controlled, or delivered with the glossy perfection of much modern pop music. This is cracked, rootsy material. Their harmonies are sometimes crooked, and singer Ciaran Lavery’s voice can get gravelly to the point of death-rattle.
The EP, which has already received airplay on BBC Radio 1, captures the true spirit of Captain Kennedy’s live sound.

Out To Lunch Arts Festival Review
Stuart Bailie Review of our Black Box gig....
Stuart Bailie (BBC, founder of the Oh Yeah Music Centre and former assistant-editor of NME) wrote a nice little review of our recent gig at the Black Box as part of the "Out To Lunch" Arts Festival.............
"I'm at the Black Box in Belfast on the third week of 2009, but I feel like adjusting my watch back to 1969. The mood is mellow and sweet and folksy. There are many young men with facial hair, and the dress is somewhere between Amish settler, Montana farmboy and Brokeback wrangler. I know that I've seen this look before and heard similar sounds in the past. And then it comes to me. I'm thinking of Robbie Robertson and The Band, getting it together in Woodstock, 40 years ago.
The Band and their pal Bob Dylan had gone to ground to escape the drugs and the intensity of their wild years. The music started sounding more downhome and mysterious while the famous Basement Tapes were an insidious answer to the hippies and acid-eaters of the West Coast.
Such reverberations are resumed in Belfast in the music of Jackson Cage, who add more recent influences like The Jayhawks and Ryan Adams to their deal.
From Lurgan, Captain Kennedy are well immersed in the "old weird America" that writer Greil Marcus covered in his book Invisible Republic. They take their name from a Neil Young song but they're also fit to sing old Dixie down. Excellent vocals. I likes 'em.
The Lowly Knights are fixing to get increasingly popular this year. They're also aware of how an act can get trapped in a look, a scene and a style. "They're selling waistcoats half price in the Rusty Zip," says Cazi, with just a little alarm. Form an orderly queue, young men."0 commenti 316 giorni
