The A Forest are Cat, Chris, Eilidh, Ewan, George and Michael who between them play bass, cello, drums, guitar, synth and voice. Kirsty used to play Cello.
Previously we have made noises in front of people alongside bands like Mountain Men Anonymous, Motormark (recently signed to Digital Hardcore Records), Misty's Big Adventure and James Apollo. We are based in Dundee but would like to see the world. Our debut single is a split 7" with Mercury Tilt Switch, which has been picking up some very nice reviews.
The A Forest have been told they sound "twinkly" and "sleepy", and were very pleased to be told that they sound like "Low having sex with Yo La Tengo and giving birth to Broadcast".
A debut album and UK tour are planned for later in 2005.
"a bittersweet dreamscape of breathy Stereolab romance"
The List - Single of the Week
"these guys and girls are like the soundtrack to a dream"
Drowned in Sound
"simply a magnificent soundscape...it feels like a long time since a band from Scotland has created something so lovely in this genre"
Stayfun
"a magnificent noise"
Is This Music?
"vocal lines that Elizabeth Fraser would kill for"
