About this product
Vinyl LP pressing. 2018 by singer/songwriter Bart Davenport and his band. Recorded in Los Angeles, Blue Motel alludes to LA with the lights down. A new project by Davenport, his seventh album since his solo breakout in 2002, the sounds on Blue Motel are an amalgam of '80s UK pop and West Coast yacht rock jams, sprinkled with cinematic flourishes, the four piece led by Bart Davenport is united in their affection for the sophisticated sounds of groups like Prefab Sprout and Style Council. Their jangly pop aesthetic, resplendent with choppy chorus tinted guitar, snappy snares, sax and bass is underlined with life trodden stories about day jobs, dating, financial insecurities, lost innocence and most prominently, time travel. Davenport's songs are delivered with a happy and sad sensibility reminiscent of Burt Bacharach. From the surreal yet humorous 'The House That Built Itself' to the sad surf music of 'Halloween By The Sea' or the romantic L.A. noir of the title track, Blue Motel arrives with a spoonful of tears, a nod and a wink.

Big Neck and No Front Teeth nice picture for our little French boy who's sending out his letters to the world as if anyone cared. You might know him from his others bands (Janitors, Pneumonias, Wild Zeros, Skeptics, Teenage Hearts... won't puke them all here !), now with this very outfit Bart de Vraantijk is recording everything by himself. And it's almost like some kind of Punk Rock experiment lock him up two days at Swampland Studios, Toulouse, with recording wizard Lo'Spider and lab brat Bart comes out with an album-full of raw-rocking, hard-hitting tunes - straying just a bit away from the typical KBD sound this time. What does it sound like you ask? Well let's have another little experiment imagine we'd put members of the Ramones, Zeros, Kids and Sham 69 on a boat and have them stop by La Rochelle's harbour for the night. They're hiring a local for vocals and having an impromptu gig... Get the picture? Labels No Front Teeth from London, UK, and Big Neck Records from Lovettsville, Virginia, did get it and decided to join forces to this scorcher of a record that'll have you melting down your seat in seconds. Don't snooze if you don't wanna lose !!
