About Me

:: Grand Carousel---------------------------------------------------- --------------- 'A luring ode to British pop music, pointers to the Stone Roses, Libertines and more vintage attire like the Byrds and Rolling Stones. Question and answer harmonies all backed up with dynamic and grooving drum crashes. A catchy sun drenched addiction'–DECODE MAGAZINE---------------------------------------------------- ---'The headline band tonight were Grand Carousel.

You know when you see a star, its like an aura that someone gives off - its an unwritten cool. This however wasnt just a one man band. The rest of the band were great, drummer playing drums with maracas! (is that a first?), solid bass and guitar showing the way. And the songs were inventive and filled with originality and style. Lets hope it happens for these guys.' M.M - The Tube Club.I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
