NEBRASKA are on The Path To The Silent Country. Tipped as one of the new bands to keep a serious eye on this year, they've already proved worthy of sussed attention by packing out Water Rats Theatre. Producer Adrian Hall (The Clash, Live 8, Ray Davies) discovered a rough demo of The Sound That Stars Make and was hooked. Born and instrumental in the much-touted New Cross anti-scene that heralded the likes of Bloc Party and Art Brut, they'd a wealth of material just waiting to be realised with a willing and able producer. The resulting album ‘The Path to the Silent Country’ was recorded in early 2006 and released in October on Hometown Jam Records, the label operated by his protégé Zoe Smith, becoming one of the brightest shining hidden gems of the year and garnering increasing praise as the buzz upon discovering it, builds. It's not just the incredible songwriting that marks them apart, their intense passion live, and the asbo-choirboy vocals of Michael Nebraska are all part of what makes music fans such staunch supporters when they check them out. Nebraska have been compared to The Smiths, the Manics, Afghan Whigs and more, kicked off the year with increasing media and industry attention (including a double page in Time Out magazine). Nebraska are, and always have been, a self-funded, self-realised DIY band with an absolute dedication to music and a belief in honesty and soul over fashion and trend. ‘A Stunning debut…surely destined for greatness’ Artrocker Magazine http://www.myspace.com/nebraskamusic NEBRASKA - The Path To The Silent Country...
