New EP: The Poppermost || Les Poppermost
Two years ago we were introduced to Scottish beat outfit The Poppermost, whose debut LP Hits To Spare revived The Beatles’ heyday. At the time it was still a solo effort by Joe Kane (Dr. Cosmo’s Tape Lab, The Owsley Sunshine), now they have grown into a full band* without the sound being substantially different. In one single day they recorded four new songs, using vintage Rickenbacker, Hofner, Gretsch, and Ludwig instruments – rhythm ‘n’ beat tunes that would all have been hits 59 years ago. However, the uplifting melodies and harmony vocals on this almost-eponymous EP also ensure that the sun will shine in 2023. Keep calm and carry on swinging.
Les Poppermost, written & produced by Joe Kane, is out now digitally and on vinyl 7″ through Rogue Records. *Featuring Joe Kane (lead vocals, piano), Richard Anderson (bass, vocals), Craig McGown (guitar, vocals) and Ross “Des” Wilson (drums, percussion).
