What Scene? Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 Alright folks.Keith band The Carousels' track 'Marianne' will be song of the day this Tuesday on influential US radio station KEXP. With monthly downloads of up to 3,000,000 and individual tracks receiving 60,000 downloads per month, it's fair to say that this is a pretty big deal for the North-east.The track, taken from the album 'Sweet Northern Light', can be heard here: www.northernstarrecords.com/node/148 Cheers 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TR!ΔNGL€ T€€TH Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 Shoegazey, dreamy, poppy, jangly and vocal harmonies. It's all good. Props to getting play on KEXP too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
What Scene? Posted January 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 Sorry folks, I maybe should've posted this in The Keith Show programme!I think it's a great achievement from a band from Keith. KEXP always seem to have their finger on the pulse, and while yes, the download of the track is free, where the band will benefit is from people requesting & buying their record & getting the name out. Every track on the LP has received at least one play I think.Will be interesting to see how many records they sell off the back of it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
