Release Notes:
Coming Soon are an English-language indie folk-rock band
from France that generated some buzz in the international
underground music scene with their full-length album debut
in 2008. Formed in 2005 in Annecy, Rh⌠ne-Alpes, France,
the band is comprised of Howard Hugues (aka Howard Hughes;
vocals), Ben Lupus (guitar, vocals), Leo Bear Creek
(drums), Billy Jet Pilot (bass), Alex Banjo (banjo,
ukulele, guitar), Mary SalomΘ (clarinet, xylophone,
vocals), and Caroline Van Pelt (keyboards, vocals). Around
the time Coming Soon were initially taking shape and
adding to their roster, some of the original bandmembers,
in particular then 11-year-old Leo Bear Creek, were
involved in Antsy Pants, an anti-folk side project led by
former Moldy Peaches singer/songwriter Kimya Dawson that
convened in Annecy in 2005. The recording sessions
resulted in an eponymous full-length album originally
released in 2006 on the American independent label
Plan-It-X and later reissued in 2007 on the British
independent label Smoking Gun Records. A couple songs from
the album, "Tree Hugger" and "Vampire," would later be
featured prominently in the Academy Award-winning film
Juno (2007) and, more notably, on the commercially
released accompanying soundtrack. Meanwhile, Coming Soon
had signed a recording contract with the well-regarded
Parisian indie label Kitchen Music and proceeded to make
their label debut with The Escort (2007), a four-track EP.
The band's full-length album debut, New Grids (2008),
followed a year later and proved relatively popular for an
independent release, reaching number 151 on the French
albums chart. A promotional video was filmed for the
single "Howard's Mood," and the album was written up in a
number of British publications such as Q and NME. In 2009
bandmember Howard Hugues made his full-length solo album
debut with O Make Me a Mask (2009) on Kitchen Music.
