Camera Obscura formed in Glasgow in 1996, releasing a slew of singles leading up to their debut album Biggest Bluest Hi-Fi in 2001. The band slowly built up a loyal following, including John Peel, who championed the band from their earliest days. Under Achievers Please Try Harder followed in 2003 and last year saw the release of Let’s Get Out Of This Country to huge acclaim. Influenced by a wide variety of heroes - from Jimmy Webb to Lloyd Cole, from Connie Francis to Skeeter Davis, from the Supremes to David Lynch - lead singer/songwriter Traceyanne Campell and crew assembled a remarkable batch of songs. Decidely upbeat, optimistic and catchy at times while also beautifully romantic, quiet and reflective at others.
