Guillemots: WXPN's April 2006 Artist to Watch

Britain's Guillemots are a young band greatly skilled at fusing unique sonic textures to their catchy and uplifting music. {readmorelink}Read More...{/readmorelink}

The end result is a completely modern sounding pop ensemble that is able to challenge the listener while also paying homage to the rich history of classic pop songwriting.

Each member brings a wildly diverse background to the group, with experience in genres ranging from classical to jazz to metal. Frontman/keyboardist Fyfe Dangerfield's soulful vocals round out the eclectic mix and bring a dramatic and rootsy feel to the group's ambitious compositions.

Their debut mini-album From The Cliffs was released in US in March of 2006 on the Fantastic Plastic label.
