Read about us in English, French, German, Italian and Spanish. Sharp Practise started in 1999. Debut album Hiya was released in 2000 to good reviews, leading to an appearance on Ground Zero TV in Australia, playlisting around the world and an audience in Costa Rica of one third of the country’s population. One song from “Hiya†was featured on a DVD by Japanese TV star Chieko Mitsui, another on the “Rock For Athletes†CD produced for Italian sportswear company Fila. Latest album “Radiocity†is available worldwide on the Rising Records label, with songs from it winning Track of The Day and Listener’s Picks awards on garageband.com. The album has won a Kweevak Award 2006, with radio airplay across the globe including US college, Australian indie networks and numerous internet stations. Bed of Rhythm spent 11 weeks on the World Underground Chart in Australia, peaking at #3. Over 200,000 copies of Sharp Practise’s music were distributed in France in late 2005. Radiocity was released under licence to Whiterock Records in Germany in January 2006. The CD became available in Canada in May 2006, where has already been a featured album on Ben T Music’s website. BBC Radio Lancashire’s Ted Robbins interviewed the band in June 2006. “We are a rock band that can play with influences from folk to dance yet still create a sound that is recognised as Sharp Practise and no other band,†frontman Nigel Clothier says. “We’re fighting a crusade to get well-played, proper songs back into the charts around the world. I want to have written as many standards as Neil Finn of Crowded House has – songs that fix moments in people’s memories. I’d like to be signing loads of autographs because people have recognised Sharp Practise as being a hard-working band with honest songs.†“Radiocity†is essentially an album about travel - in both the literal and emotional sense – and is a pure delight in a music world where style is often preferable to substance and should go down well with fans of the Counting Crows and Big Country and many others. “We trying to put some good playing together with some strong words and picking up on things from everyday life as if we were peeking into your diary and singing your life back to you,†Nigel says. The band’s first major tour was a five-week British expedition in 2005 during which they played everywhere from London to Glasgow. Highlights were the show at the Cavern Club, Liverpool, and the last night, a hometown HMV showcase in Manchester. A video for the track “Bed of Rhythm†directed by Wigan based videographer Tom Jones has been released on the internet. Future plans include a live album and a multi-media DVD, with video and audio components (including a video for “Morgan’s Creek†and a previously unreleased track, live favourite “Hook In My Heartâ€) as well as an exclusive interview with the band. Sharp Practise sont une bande classique de roche mais pas un excédent le dessus criant en hurlant monstre de roulement de la roche n ', c'est le bruit d'une bande comme qui pour garder la tranquillité de choses et ne dirait non à un ensemble acoustique, mais pas ce soir : ce soir elles veulent basculer. Et roche elles . Le genre de chose Neil Finn a fait sa marque déposée au cours des années avec des powerchords dramatiques de Qui-modèle et le tambourinage discoïde furieux - les rappels INXS avant qu'elles soient allées merde et aient obtenu gonflées. Pressant, dans un mot. Clairement, c'est une bande qui, comme nos cousins sauter-basculants antipodaux, n'a pas peur des trois m : Sens musical, Mateship et Mellifluousness. Le nouveau CD Radiocity est essentiellement un album au sujet de voyage - dans le sens littéral et émotif - et est un plaisir pur dans un monde de musique où le modèle est souvent préférable à la substance. Le JOB de production est un de qualité exceptionnelle aussi bien. Il y a un sens fort de l'universalité et du relatability sur ici dans lequel vous dessine, comme écouter des chats de ` dans le berceau 'avec votre papa, ou le déplacement par un pays étranger sur vos propres (avalez en particulier dessous !) avec un sourire sur votre visage et le soleil sur votre dos. Ceci devrait être vers le bas bien assorti aux ventilateurs du Counting Crows et de Big Country. Scharf üben Sie sind ein klassisches Felsenband aber nicht ein Ãœberschuß die Oberseite, die monster des Felsens n kreischend ' Rollenschreit, ist dieses der Ton eines Bandes, das wie, um Sachen ruhig zu halten und nicht nicht zu einem akustischen Satz, aber nicht heute abend sagen würde: heute abend möchten sie schaukeln. Und Felsen sie. Die Art der Sache Neil Finn hat sein eingetragenes Warenzeichen über den Jahren mit drastischen C$art powerchords und dem wütenden discoid Trommeln - Rückrufe INXS gebildet, bevor sie Mist gingen und aufgeblasen erhielten. Dringend, in einem Wort. Offenbar ist dieses ein Band, das, wie unsere antipodean knallen-Schwingvetter, nicht vor den drei m Angst hat: Musicianship, Mateship und Mellifluousness. Neue CD Radiocity ist im Wesentlichen ein Album über Spielraum - in der wörtlichen und emotionalen Richtung - und ist eine reine Freude in einer Musikwelt, in der Art häufig zur Substanz vorzuziehend ist. Der Produktionsjob ist einer von aussergewöhnlicher Qualität außerdem. Es gibt eine starke Richtung von Universalität und von relatability auf hier, der Sie in, wie das Hören zu den ` Katzen in der Aufnahmevorrichtung ' mit Ihrem Vati oder das Reisen durch ein Ausland auf Ihren Selbst zeichnet (werfen Sie besonders darunter!) nieder mit einem Lächeln auf Ihrem Gesicht und der Sonne auf Ihrer Rückseite. Dieses sollte zu den Ventilatoren des Counting Crows und des Big Country unten gut passen. Tagliente esercitisi in sono una fascia classica della roccia ma non un'eccedenza la parte superiore che grida urlando monster del rullo della roccia la n ', questo è il suono di una fascia che come mantenere le cose calme e non direbbe ad un insieme acustico, ma non stasera no: stasera desiderano oscillare. E roccia. Il genere di cosa Neil Finn ha fatto il suo marchio nel corso degli anni con i powerchords drammatici di Che-stile ed il rullo del tamburo discoid furious - richiami INXS prima che andassero crap ed ottenessero bloated. Urgente, in una parola. Chiaramente, questa è una fascia che, come i nostri cugini schiocc-oscillanti antipodean, non è impaurita delle tre m.: Musicianship, Mateship e Mellifluousness. Il nuovo CD Radiocity è essenzialmente un album circa la corsa - sia nel senso letterale che impressionabile - ed è un piacere puro in un mondo di musica in cui lo stile è spesso preferibile alla sostanza. Il lavoro di produzione è uno di qualità eccezionale pure. Ci è un senso forte di universalità e del relatability su qui in cui li disegna, come ascoltare i gatti del ` nella culla 'con il vostro dad, o attraversare through un paese straniero sui vostri propri (scolisi specialmente sotto!) con un sorriso sulla vostra faccia e sul sole sulla vostra parte posteriore. Ciò dovrebbe andare bene giù con i ventilatori del Counting Crows e di Big Country. Sharp Practise son una venda clásica de la roca pero no un excedente la tapa que grita gritando monstruo del rodillo de la roca n ', éste es el sonido de una venda como la cual mantener cosas reservadas y no dirÃa no a un sistema acústico, sino no esta noche: desean esta noche oscilar. Y roca . La clase de cosa Neil Finn ha hecho su marca registrada sobre los años con powerchords dramáticos del Quien-estilo y teclear discoid furioso - memorias INXS antes de que fueran crap y consiguieran hinchadas. Urgente, en una palabra. Claramente, ésta es una venda que, como nuestros primos hacer estallar-oscilantes antipodean, no está asustada de los tres m: Musicianship, Mateship y Mellifluousness. El nuevo CD Radiocity es esencialmente un álbum sobre recorrido - en el sentido literal y emocional - y es un placer puro en un mundo de la música donde está a menudo preferible el estilo a la sustancia. El trabajo de producción es uno de calidad excepcional también. Hay un sentido fuerte de la universalidad y del relatability en aquà en el cual le dibuja, como escuchar los gatos del ` en la horquilla ' con su papá, o viajar a través de un paÃs extranjero en sus el propios (trague particularmente debajo!) con una sonrisa en su cara y el sol en su parte posteriora. Esto debe ir abajo bien con los ventiladores del Counting Crows y de Big Country. Check out the artist's website: http://www.sharppractise.com Track List: 1. Bridge Across The Harbour 2. No Thanks 3.
