Release Notes:
Inexplicably taking their name from a syrupy 1991 film
about a child prodigy starring Jodie Foster, Little Man
Tate is a scrappy indie rock band from Sheffield, England.
Like their Yorkshire compatriots the Arctic Monkeys,
Little Man Tate offers a veddy veddy British take on
guitar pop. But where the Arctic Monkeys' inspiration lies
primarily in the Television Personalities (so much so that
in 2006 a rumor flew about the Internet that the TVPs'
Daniel Treacy was in fact the band's secret songwriter)
and their brand of fractured post-punk, Little Man Tate
shares more in common with Blur, the Dentists, and other
devotees of the Kinks' blend of catchy tunes and playful
lyrics about everyday British life. Singer and rhythm
guitarist Jon Windle, lead guitarist Edward "Maz" Marriot,
bassist Ben Surtees, and drummer Dan Fields originally
formed under the name Carousel Moon in 2003, briefly going
through the names the Moon and Lazy Eye before settling on
Little Man Tate in 2005. Little Man Tate released their
debut single, "The Agent," in March 2006 on their own
Yellow Van label. After a second self-released single,
"What? What You Got," hit the lower reaches of the U.K.
Top 40 chart in May of that year, Little Man Tate signed
to V2 Records. V2 released three more singles -- "House
Party at Boothy's," "Man, I Hate Your Band," and "Sexy in
Latin" -- with increasing chart success each time, before
Little Man Tate's debut album, About What You Know, was
released in February 2007.
