cutely attractive hooks cut with a delriously offset dizziness. Emily & The Faves are the ones to watch !'

A Startling Debut

'The musical equivalent of being let off work early on a sunny day' Bido Lito, July 2011 'In many ways a classic Mersey band but their knack for crafting wildly fresh psychedelic pop means they stand head and shoulders above tired revivalists.' Peter Guy ' Liverpool Sound City 2011: Top 10 locals' ‎''With more than a hint of Laurel Canyon’s golden age about it, the album condenses the classic songwriting sensibilities of the aforementioned with a helping of angularity courtesy of Krautrock. If the mixture of influences sounds unwieldy, it isn’t.....A superb, assured sounding debut album'' Richard Lewis, Bearded Magazine www.beardedmagazine.com 'Your mission, should you decide to accept it, is to track down this record and enjoy it many times over!' seba-rashii.blogspot.com (Japan) '' Emily and the Faves debut long player recording....i loves it....stand out tracks...."Sometimes...." and "My Fave...." lovely work ......fresh as a Daisy ...if it w' a drink...Dandelion and Burdock.....ice cold...full of frizz...'' Gary Daly (out of the legendary China Crisis) Another 'wow' moment .......Emily Lansley is an absolute marvel of a song writer. Capturing a sense of the familiar, sending it down to the fluid, fanciful melody land and getting the faves on board to create some rich, flavoursome songs. Edging from Wild Nothing indie pop to super catchy jangle pop...check! Jumbo Records, Leeds 'A band whose stock seems to be perpetually on the rise.' Mark Pinnnington sevenstreets.com ' If you have to have a signpost, think the quaint eccentricity of Stina Nordenstam meeting the quirkier end of the 1975-1976 New York scene – you know, Charles Dodgson’s Alice In Wonderland fronting early Talking Heads. Emily's fabulously non-conformist guitar playing ... and her simultaneously innocent and knowing voice and strangely affecting lyrics seal the deal.' Paul Simpson's (Wild Swans/The Teardrop Explodes) online blog 'Emily and the Faves' solid indie-pop is reminiscent of the brief early 1990s period when Belly, The Breeders and Lush dominated indie music. Led by Emily’s heavily reverbed guitar, and the bands dexterous unison guitar-bass riffs and strong harmonies. The Faves could be genuine contenders.' Richard Lewis, NERVE magazine 'Fabulous songs walk a tightrope between driving post punk minimalism and beautifully crafted other worldliness. A band to be cherished and unique on a worls scale' Barry Sutton, liverpool.com magazine
