Punches: Punches ep |

|
2006 release on Arch Hill from classy new group Punches, principally made up of Kelly Steven & James Duncan. Punches' music is a mixture of melancholia, electronica, pop guitars & folk. In the live setting James plays guitar with his array of effects & Kelly is on vocals & bass. The music is supported by a simple drum machine beat & the odd atmospheric interlude, giving the songs space for Kelly's beautiful & unique voice to move. Both Kelly & James are involved in other musical projects as well - James is currently a member of SJD & Dimmer, as well as having just released a solo EP. Kelly has previously played the bass in Voom, while they were both in The Pencils with Greta Anderson (ex-Superette). Punches have had their first two singles. 'Day By Day' & 'Four Feet' spend eight weeks on bFM's Top 10 - both tracks reaching #1 - & also a spell on the Alt Radio & Active89FM charts. Also featured on the EP are the talents of Sean Donnelly (aka SJD), Gary Sullivan (Dimmer, JPSE), Julien Dyne (Opensouls) & Tom Atkinson (Tomachi, SJD, One Million Dollars).
