Her unique compositions have an elliptical quality which creates its own timeframe, rules, and kingdoms, and are reminiscent of the magic found in UK '60s artifacts.Her recent CD "Courting Autumn", is a sonic almanac burnished with melancholy, its wistful vocals floating above slinky and delicate hand-spun guitar, windswept and weather-worn by plaintive string and recorder arrangements.http://www.myspace.com/pamelawynshannonKITCHEN CYNICSThis is what Triptych said about Alan earlier this year. It sounds great, so we copied itA one-man psych-folk vanquisher from Aberdeen, Alan Davidson aka Kitchen Cynics has cultivated wry acoustic apologues and warm machine parables since the Eighties. Hes propagated a slew of cassettes and CDRs, while live alliances include Damon & Naomi and Masaki Batoh (Ghost). Davidsons mythological, prosaic and deadpan narratives map the universal and the personal: celebrating in equal measure the sea and lasagne; fossils and love.http://www.myspace.com/kitchencynicsCRAIG DAVIDSONLocal singer-songwriter whose influences include Nick Drake, Leonard Cohen and Elliott Smith.http://www.myspace.com/craigdavidsonaberdeen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
