GAUCHE are an Australian electroacoustic outfit heralding musicians from such
renowned acts as HERMITUDE, MONSIEUR CAMEMBERT, TOOTH, CIRCUS BIZARRE, CIRCUS
MONOXIDE, DARTH VEGAS, and classical vocal ensemble CANTILLATION. The combination
of talent and perfectionism with a variety of influences has allowed Gauche to
create a unique sound in Australian music. 'Paints Lane' is a beautifully crafted
awesome debut featuring the radio single "Take My Hand". Described
as "a fragile sculpture of fragments that interlock like
Jigsaw pieces" Gauche delight in contorting traditional song structure
and drawing on innumerable musical reference points, though always with an
underlying electroacoustic base. These intricate sounds are pulled off seamlessly
live. Expect plenty of live activity from Gauche to support this release.
After spending much of last year in the studio they will be touring nationally,
as well looking to get overseas later this year. If you like LAMB, BJRK and
PORTISHEAD.
