Keshco’s latest album “Lego Of Me” can be downloaded here.

The six tracks on their new release “Lego Of Me” are about fantastical romantic visions – quixotic pursuit of love, obsession, inner peace through gender reassignment, futuristic old-fashioned entertainment, suburban sensuality, and ultimately, a honey-sweet afterlife where your favourite celebrities banter and put their harps through echo pedals.

Keshco are back! The quirky English trio of home-recorders are delighted to bring more odd sounds and catchy melodies to WM Recordings. The six tracks on “Lego Of Me” are about fantastical romantic visions – quixotic pursuit of love, obsession, inner peace through gender reassignment, futuristic old-fashioned entertainment, suburban sensuality, and ultimately, a honey-sweet afterlife where your favourite celebrities banter and put their harps through echo pedals.

“She Knows Disco” was originally written by Robert several years ago as an acoustic plea. Andy added the dancefloor arrangement and final verse. “More Deserving” is an imagined soundtrack to some (probably Italian) psychological horror flick of the 1970s. Then we come to the EP’s centrepoint (and newest track) “James Harries”, a character study of the curious curly-haired British antiques prodigy turned transsexual celebrity. It’s meant with no malice. Listen out for Luke’s flowery flute work. “Decadent Robots” is set in a carnival where old-time electronics are re-wired into dapper mannequins. Gather round! Both this and “Inhale” were written in about 2006, the latter tapping into the growth in lifestyle therapy and alternative sensual (and sexual) healing. Lastly, there’s a very important message from the other side.

These tunes were recorded on a Fostex 4-track and using freeware programs Goldwave and Buzz.

Andy Brain: Acoustic guitar, lead/backing vocals, bass guitar, various keyboards, chimes, computer work

Hello there – we’re Keshco, a quirky trio who have home-recorded four hour-long CDs over the last decade, together with countless unreleased projects.

Trolley Crash features a number of songs planned for our next album Deforestation of Dak, together with some exclusive linking tracks.

The five main songs cover most types of Keshco noise, from flippant to sincere. You’ll have to imagine the props and costumes that accompany our live shows. We hope you’ll have a good time listening to it and that it may inspire you to seek out our previous CDs, which wait patiently in the wings.

(Written and recorded by Andy Brain, Robert Follen and Luke Sample)

On Saturday 1st August we do another live session for Vombat Radio, from 5-7pm UK time, direct from our living room. We’re hoping to play a lot of new tracks. More info on Vombatradio.com.

On Wednesday 5th August we will be putting on another TROLLEY CRASH night, in South London.

The line-up is:
Keshco – our set may yet be electronic or acoustic
Jude Cowan – a songstress of finely twisted wit and acoustics
Dead Cowboy Culture – unorthodox, eclectic tuneage from Leicester

Also there will be some comedy mayhem and sweets, lots and lots of sweets.

The venue is:
The Cavendish Arms, 128 Hartington Road, Stockwell, London SW8 2HJ
Entry is £5 and the event is from 8pm – 11.45pm.

There’s a promo clip for the night here:

The gig will take place at The Cavendish Arms, 128 Hartington Road, Stockwell, London SW8 2HJ.

[update] We have found an additional artist for April 1st, but Keshco is still interested in bands and artists who would like to join them on future occassions. Please get in touch if you’re interested!
