CRUMBY LOVERS: A NEW WEIRD UK SAMPLER... AND THE NEXT CHAPTER IN THE SOCIAL MUSIC REVOLUTION?

Crumby Lovers is an online compilation offering up a peculiarly British response to the phenomenon of New Weird America, currently characterised by the likes of Fleet Foxes, Joanna Newsome and Bon Iver et al. It also represents an exciting new chapter in the social music revolution kick-started at last.fm. All the tracks on the album are, for a limited time only, free to download exclusively at last.fm: http://www.last.fm/music/Various+Artists/Crumby+Lovers%3A+A+New+Weird+UK+Sampler

The featured artists come from all parts of the UK from Scotland to the South West have connived and collaborated purely thanks to the unique way in which Last.fm works to dish up this slice of Anglo-Americana for your listening pleasure.

Described by as www.slowcoustic.com as:

"A unique compilation that has just been unveiled to the world via the Last.fm music community. It is not only a great idea, distribution method and free (currently), it is simply an amazing collection of songs, period.

"While it can be described as lo-fi, indie, singer-songwriter and even Anglo-Americana, you can trust it is a warm yet sober journey through the current(s) of today's congested musical seas.

Characterised by honest, stripped-down song writing the album includes ten quirkily accessible compositions from:

Thom Piddock from York, Nottinghams The Heaving Seas, London based Sarah Lain and Klak Tik, Edinburghs Eagleowl and Mount Analogue from Glasgow, Birminghams Tom Peel, Norfolk based Jack Mountain, Ellie Walker from Cambridge and the reclusive Anton Rothschild from somewhere on the South West peninsula

And the collaboration doesnt end there artist, musician and last.fm user Frances Castle (www.smallmoonvalley.com) has specially donated the albums striking artwork.
