A CLASSIC EDUCATION - HEY THERE STRANGER

Johnathan from His Clancyness fame band project, A Classic Education, has a new EP out on Lefse Records, home of the critically acclaimed How To Dress Well album. It looks like he's now concentrating his time for a while on this project, that anyway, it's been on for a while as their first EP was out 3 years ago, both on vinyl and download versions, and a 7 out on April last year. This time, the EP contains 6 new songs including Gone To Sea which video has been posted around. The sound is not far from His Clancyness but has a more full classic band approach. You can get the EP here which has a beautifully designed artwork on vinyl and catch them live around in one of the many dates they are playing in New York.

HIS CLANCYNESS

His Clancyness jumped into blog fame last year thanks to his pseudo-acoustic and slowgazed tender version of Wavves' So Bored. From Canada, Jonathan Clancy put out his first release (now sold out) as a tape on Secret Furry Hole back in February. There, he combined acoustic guitars, mandolin, glock, synth, loops and organs and fuzz in 8 short and beautiful songs.
Lately, he's been sending some new songs to different blogs that share the same beauty but are further developed and arranged, sounding more like a band. No news if he has any new releases coming soon but the amount of new stuff appearing points at it, and we definitely hope it.
He's a friend of Banjo and Freak Out's Alessio and, although his music is much defined and less atmospheric, they kind of share the bedroom dreamy feeling and the DIY attitude. Mystify the Ocean is his last song to appear online and my favourite so far.
