.. About This Release .......................................
: :
: A band that takes its name from a French children's :
: television series about a boy and his dog would almost :
: have to be precious, and, to be certain, Belle & :
: Sebastian is precious. But "precious" can be a damning :
: word, and Belle & Sebastian doesn't have the negative :
: qualities that the word connotes ù they are private but :
: not insular, pretty but not wimpy; they make gorgeous, :
: delicate melodies sound full-bodied. Led by :
: guitarist/vocalist Stuart Murdoch, the seven-piece band :
: has an intimate, majestic sound that is equal parts :
: folk-rock and '60s pop, but Murdoch's gift for not only :
: whimsy and surrealism, but also for odd, unsettling :
: lyrical detail keeps the songs grounded in a tangible :
: reality. :
: Based in Glasgow, Scotland, Belle & Sebastian released :
: their first two albums in 1996 at the peak of the :
: chamber-pop movement. At first, some critics in :
: Britain's music weeklies tied the band into the :
: subgenre, yet the group was too pretty, too delicate, :
: to bear that label. Through their first two years of :
: public existence, the band shielded their :
: personalities, submitting publicity photos featuring a :
: girl that wasn't in the band and reluctantly posing for :
: photo shoots. Furthermore, they performed in odd :
: venues, playing not only the standard coffeehouses and :
: cafes, but also homes, church halls, and libraries. :
: :
: The idiosyncratic approach to building their career :
: isn't surprising given Murdoch's approach toward :
: beginning a band. A longtime fan of Felt, Murdoch left :
: Glasgow for London in the early '90s in hopes of :
: finding the group's leader Lawrence, but he never found :
: his idol. Upon his return to Glasgow he enrolled in :
: university and he began writing songs and short :
: stories. While at school, he took a music business :
: course where he decided to form a band and release a :
: record for his final project (he had tried to form a :
: band before to no success). For the project, he :
: assembled the seven-piece Belle & Sebastian, featuring :
: himself on guitar and vocals, choosing and recruiting :
: members by instinct in a local all-night cafe in late :
: 1995. He eventually found Sarah Martin (violin), Stevie :
: Jackson (guitar), Chris Geddes (keyboards), Stuart :
: David (bass), Richard Colburn (drums), and Isobel :
: Campbell (cello). All seven members were college :
: students, and all agreed that the idea behind the band :
: was to stay on a small scale, to keep it as a project :
: and not let the band run their lives; they even assumed :
: they would release two albums and break up. In May of :
: 1996, they self-released their debut album Tigermilk on :
: Electric Honey Records. Only 1,000 copies of the album, :
: which was only pressed on vinyl, were released, but it :
: unexpectedly became a sensation, earning terrific word :
: of mouth throughout England. As a result, the band :
: became slightly more than a school project ù it became :
: an actual band. If You're Feeling Sinister, released on :
: the independent Jeepster label, followed in November of :
: 1996. By the time the album was released in America on :
: the EMI subisdiary the Enclave, it had earned :
: considerable critical acclaim in the U.K. ù not only :
: from music weeklies, but from newspapers like The :
: Sunday Times and magazines like The Face ù and a large :
: cult following; by some accounts, Tigermilk was being :
: sold for as much as ú75. Over the course of 1997, word :
: of mouth continued to grow in America, even as the band :
: pulled out of an American tour because the Enclave went :
: bankrupt and closed. :
: :
: As the band cult continued to build in 1997, Belle & :
: Sebastian released three EPs ù Dog on Wheels (May), :
: Lazy Line Painter Jane (July), and 3, 6, 9 Seconds of :
: Light... (October). Each subsequent EP placed higher on :
: the indie charts and received great critical acclaim. :
: By the end of the year, the group finalized an American :
: deal with Matador Records, issuing The Boy with the :
: Arab Strap in September 1998. The following year saw :
: the eagerly anticipated wide re-release of Tigermilk, :
: the album that started it all. Following completion of :
: 2000's Fold Your Hands Child, You Walk Like a Peasant, :
: Stuart David left Belle and Sebastian to focus :
: full-time on his solo project, Looper. In 2001, the :
: group released two EPs - Jonathan David and I'm Waking :
: Up to Us and recorded the soundtrack for Todd Solondz's :
: film Storytelling. Just before the soundtrack's release :
: in spring 2002, Belle and Sebastian embarked on a :
: comprehensive tour of the United States and Canada, :
: before returning to Europe for the summer festival :
: season. :
