DEBUT ALBUM... TO BE RELEASED IN FEBRUARY 2010.
Meanwhile HOULETTE goes to Pine Island...
Houlette launch their long-awaited single, Pine Island, from their forthcoming album, to be released through Melbourne label, EXO Records (Apache Beat, The Night Terrors, The Slits...).
Imbued with a distinct piquancy, Pine Island has all the warmth and feel of something sublimely tropical. Rich with the sound of tribal drums, glittering harp, melodic bass lines and sweet vocal harmonies, it stands as a beautiful introduction to Houlette's debut record.
Houlette will be joined by fellow Melbourne's bands, Sly Hats and Gold Tango. Free copies of the single, plus two other previously un-released tracks, will be given out upon entry!
'Reminiscent of early 60's folk and french pop influences... punctuated with bursts of dark intermissions and sultry sounds'
Houlette has also released a 7" - THE ESCAPE, recorded in February 2008 at HeadGap Studio's with Neil Thomason, with mastering by Bob Weston at Chicago Mastering Service, Chicago, Il.
