Whilst Russian Girlfriend's www.russiangirlfriend.co.uk influences take in Muse, Suede, Jeff Buckley, Radiohead etc, the style is all their own – Russian Girlfriend have truly created something fresh and distinctive – “truly original” and “…in defiance of today’s stereotypes”. The sound blends dark romance and passion with a high energy and evokes images of ‘another time, another place’, somewhere distant and foreign yet strangely welcoming. The classical, flowing style of Jools’ guitar weaves effortlessly in and out of Matt’s harsher, more gutteral guitar sound, while bassist Rob and drummer Dave fly around the rhythm section pinning the elements together. The vocal style is as unique as it is enthralling – piercing, passionate and at the same time haunting. Never is a note off key. The resulting songs are hard to forget Pete Chambers - BBC Radio WM:- “Russian Girlfriend - romantically brooding and emotionally powerful”. Ben Glover – Storm digital radio:– “They could be huge. In fact, I hope they will be!” Helen Finch – AiiRadio:– “one track certainly isn’t enough” 3rd May – The Roost Rock Venue, Granville Ave, Long Eaton, Notts 18th May - Pablo Joe’s at the White Horse, Leamington Spa 19th May - The Marrs Bar, Pierpoint St, Worcester 26th May - The Jailhouse, Much Park St, Coventry 23rd June - The Golden Cross, Hay Lane, Coventry 2nd July - The Riverside Festival, Stamford, Lincs 11th July - The Queens Hall, Nuneaton Please visit our website at http://www.russiangirlfriend.co.uk for mp3’s, info on the band and details of all forthcoming shows. |
