Last Harbour

Bio

Last Harbour is :

  • David Armes: guitar, noise, oddments
  • Kev Craig: voice, theremin
  • Mike Doward : electric bass, double bass
  • Sarah Kemp : violin
  • Huw McPherson : drums, percussion
  • Gina Murphy : piano, voice, organ
  • James Youngjohns : viola, lap & pedal steel.

    Last Harbour are a Manchester collective. If their first mini-album ‘an empty box is in my heart' wasn't very far from the Tindersticks they have progressively created their own sound, at the same time rich, barren, complex and simple. Using instrumentation that might traditionally be associated with folk music, the band creates sonic pictures that speak to your mind. This is music with a strong emotional content, both bitter and beautiful.

    After releasing ‘the host of wild creatures' ( 2002 ) and ‘hold fast, pioneer' ( 2005 ), Last Harbour have just finished recording and mixing a new album in Hall Place Recording Studio in Leeds.
