The Junipers

The Sun doesn't shine too much where The Junipers come from, but its warming rays can be felt all over their debut album "Cut Your Key". This English 5-piece cosmic pop outfit are a breath of fresh air that draw inspiration from the past, present & the future, creating a wall of sound by subtly utilising their collection of antique, primitive & modern instruments. They have been honing their craft since 2000; in that time they have built their own studio, recorded & given away three demo albums & now, released their debut album proper. The band have recieved praise & airplay from Steve Lamacq, Mark Radcliffe, Bob Harris, Janice Long, Marc Riley, & Tom Robinson, & had single of the week on Radio 2 in 2008.

Between them all they have a record collection to die for & have managed to draw on that wealth of sonic schooling to create a truly incredible & unique sound. "Honest, Joyful songs with sucrose vocals & chord changes pulled from a broken heart" has been the perspective of reviewers, a perfect summary of what this band are all about.
