"SONGS TO ILLUMINATE STADIUMS" (New Noise)
NEBRASKA play PRONTO CLUB, Queens Cross on Friday 16th March!
(+ UK tour dates March/April)
NEBRASKA are on The Path To The Silent Country. 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. ‘A Stunning debut…surely destined for greatness’ Artrocker Magazine
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 favourably 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.
