AIR CASTLES + MARY EPWORTH AND THE JUBILEE BAND + JONJO FEATHER

Event information

Air Castles
www.myspace.com/aircastlesmusic
Feeling discontented in other musical projects, 20-year-old Max Mansson started writing songs as “Air Castles” in the summer of 2008 and shortly after decided to take some of those songs out of his bedroom and into the studio. This resulted in a debut EP that Rock Sound magazine calls “fantastic” and refers to as “sublime crystalline indie … that will appeal to fans of Jeniferever, Sigur Rós, Death Cab For Cutie and Band of Horses alike.”
Air Castles’ debut EP “Night and Day” was recorded and produced at Tonteknik Recording in Umeå, Sweden, by Magnus Lindberg of Cult of Luna and released in December 2008 on Max’s own label - Winter Hymns Records.
The EP has received praise in the UK, Europe and USA and has helped Air Castles to play in Spain, Germany, tour the UK, achieve a US licensing contract and get endorsements from Orange Amplifiers and Roland

"A swooning oompah of a song. Fiddles flurry, backing vocals waltz and it's all wrapped into a compact two minutes. Get a flagon of ale and get stuck in to it."
Lee Puddefoot- Artrocker

Jonjo Feather

"Jonjo Feather continues his tirade of darkly romantic penned pop. There's something very intimate to Jonjo's vocal delivery,surrounded by a slurry of guitar laden rifts, 'Taxi' is my Christmas number one." i-D
"Priceless pop gems warped and skewed by degrees of fuzz...a wilfully impish rule book tearing talent on the rise." LOSING TODAY
