Alone On The Beach

Core of Soul

Toshiba-EMI (Japan)

WE SAY

(No soundclip today) One of the Japanese bands who played at SXSW. Sadly we missed the gig but we did discover this great track on the accompanying sampler. Good tune, original sound, loads of international potential. And it's only the opening line that's reminiscent of Big Yellow Taxi!
