Talented
Bristolian three-peice. Formed in January 2005, LeScour draw on
a wide spectrum of influences such as Radiohead, Jeff Buckley,
Portishead, Guillemots, Bloc Party, We Are Scientists and Mogwai.
The band consist of Mark Maconnachie (vocals, guitar, synths),
Nick Wade (bass / synths), and Pete Moore (drums / pads).
Musically, their collective backgrounds in college bands has
forged an imaginative but melodic sound. Bold, epic, soulful,
emotional, intense, uplifting.....LeScour?possess all of these
qualities. Having recorded their EP entitled Little Strategies
with Portishead Bass player Jim Barr, the band have since played
at?prestigious venues such as the London Astoria, The Marquee
and Bristol Carling Academy. Combined with regular weekend slots
at local venues such as The Fleece, The Louisiana, and The
Croft, LeScour have developed a strong and loyal fan-base. At
the end of a busy 2006, the band recorded an exclusive live
performance and interview for BBC Radio Bristol. This attracted
yet more interest from the industry and music lovers alike. As a
result, 2007 is set to be another busy year for the
band.....with a mini UK tour, a host of summer festivals and
another independent album release all in the pipeline. |
