Mush, the Leeds band who specialise inwryly-observational, exquisite lo-fi guitar pop, have signed to MemphisIndustries and announced details of their debut EP. Recorded at Glasgow's thriving Green Door Studio withRonan Fay (also guitarist of ascendant Scottish rockers Sweaty Palms), the EP'ssix tracks follow the proud lineage of art-rock from both sides of the pond.Mush cite Pavement, Sonic Youth, Television and The Fall as their primaryinfluences: "fundamentally we identifyas music fans as much as artists. I write music that I want to hear for my ownenjoyment," says vocalist / guitarist Dan Hyndman. "I've always admired people who can createvisceral and inspiring art without carrying on as some transcendent being.Having your influences on your sleeve and being open is just an extension ofthat."
