Hello to you all! There's been some talk recently on the Belle and Sebastian e-mailing list about Jeepster's new signings, Salako, so i thought i'd let you all know a little bit more. Salako are a four-piece from Hull, self-described as sounding like "the gates of heaven opening up and a thousand angels beckoning you inside". They're a bunch of cheeky scallywags who happen to write some of the most interesting, intelligent and imaginative songs since well .. since no-one, as their sound is so very very unique. Jeepster plan to release Salako's first single "Growing Up In The Night" on July 20th and their debut album "Re-Inventing Punctuation" on August 3rd 1998. Their web-site will go on-line at midday on July 20th, you can see the countdown at http://www.jeepster.co.uk/salako/ Despite no-one even knowing about the band, we've had repeated plays of one of the album tracks "Go On Then! Enlighten Me, Why Doncha?" on Xfm, London's Alternative Radio Station. There is also a chance to catch James from the band live on the air tomorrow (Thursday, June 11th) at the end of BBC Radio One's Evening Session during the Live Music Update (8.30pm), so all of you who met James at the London Belle and Sebastian picnics can hear his first bit of promo ... and giggle! More news as it comes ... Cheers, Katrina. ****************************************************************************** jeepster recordings ltd, mailto:a-and-r@jeepster.co.uk 217 canalot, 222 kensal road, london, w10 5bn phone - 0181 964 9432, fax - 0181 964 8600 http://www.jeepster.co.uk This message was sent to 623 people. ************************************************************************ Message sent from the Jeepster news service To remove yourself from this list visit; http://www.totalweb.co.uk/bluesoda/ If you wish to join a B&S mailing list, then visit; http://www.majordomo.net/sinister/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
