Timothy Leary seducing that lil musicbox ballerina

About Me


Timothy Leary is in the afterlife living in a cloud. He hears the most amazing sounds and follows it until he finds a little music box. He opens it and finds a beautiful twirling ballerina... What this has to do with Lord Classic we're not entirely sure....Tim Leary then faxes Lord Classic to find a song that will help him seduce this beautiful creature. Read on....
LC's minimalist indie sound explores the aural spectrum of their instruments. Genuinely obscure lyrics and song lines speak to the everyday as the acoustic guitar swirls, smooth bass lines slide into grinding fuzz, imprecise percussion decays into a throb as the music box slowly unwinds...L.C. are honing their sound in New York venues like Crash Mansion, Arlene's Grocery, Parkside Lounge and Pete's Candy Mansion.
Lord Classic live in a dilapidated Mansion in Brooklyn. Two Australian band members conjure the ghosts of Australia's thriving indie Melbourne underground music scene of the late 70's, early 80's (a-la Dogs In Space). Tim Leary's ghost bounces off the peeling velvet wallpaper, Chuffy provides searing flowerchild angst and holds it all down. The dust flies in the 72 bedroom mansion. The chandelier swings. The parties live & die over days. The paintings with the moving eyeballs dig that Classic click, though no one is sure whether we are lost in the 1970s or the 1790s.
Facts about Lord Classic:
- Peej's A.D.D. resulted in 4 Australian high schools before he was 17.
- Chuffy can fit her whole fist in her mouth, has 4 tattoos and Flower Child Angst (FCA).
- Chuffy drinks Jamesons then falls asleep if the lights are too dark.
- Peej will rub you for money.
- Chuffy teaches little Brooklyn kids not to say things like:
"I could go to the baffroom?"
- Brown is not a Fireman or a Salmon but will tell you what you are.
-Supa Szoka's favorite color is music...
"We're here to make your drink taste laced...check us out while we're still into it."
