Melodie Group Seven Songs

Melodie Group "Summerness"
7" vinyl. Matinee.
Matinee Recordings says: Third release from the alter ego of Windmills vocalist Roy Thirlwall and his Melodie Group. The superb title track is a triumph reminiscent of Echo and the Bunnymen's heyday with swirling guitars, haunting amounts of reverb, and captivating vocals. The two b-sides are acoustic affairs called "Nineteen Eighty Nine" and "Small Grinning Thing" that demonstrate the simplicity and innovation possible from the Melodie Group palette. Three songs that display great promise for the band's debut album "Up Down Around" scheduled for release next year.

Melodie Group Updownaround
CD. Matinee.
Long awaited full length from the enigmatic Melodie Group, featuring the consummate songwriting skills of The Windmills vocalist and guitarist Roy Thirlwall. Previous releases have enjoyed some of the highest praise lofted at a Matinée artist, including comparisons to Grant McLennan and Robert Forster of the Go-Betweens, as well as Echo and the Bunnymen, East Village and Felt. This 10-track album features relaxed, melodic popsongs that achieve a rare mixture of melancholy and catchiness. Lusciously paced, with gorgeous vocals delivered in the most dulcet of tones, "Updownaround" is a triumph for Thirlwall's already esteemed catalogue and a testament to the brilliance of his creativity.
