I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)
Hello. We are Super U. We like playing music together and travelling around the place. We've been together in various guises for about 9 years now, and are way past caring if we ever 'make it' or not. At the moment the sum of our ambitions is to finish our debut album 'We Live in Bazakhstan', which we are recording in various living rooms and studios here in Brighton with many of our wonderful musical friends. Friends such as Marty Jenkins, Adam Morton, Paul Beat, Alima Boog and Will Calderbank, who have all helped us enormously and who we owe many drinks. The plan when we finish it is to release it on our own Sack The Juggler label. Every now and again we venture out of Brighton to play shows in different towns which is usually good fun. These shows have ranged from a good night playing a festival in France, to an equally good night playing a night in Manchester that was totally dead. We're pretty useless at describing our music but it has been described, variously, by people we know as 'folk-tinged ponce rock' and (our recent favourite) 'a bit like Traffic'. Having never listened to Traffic in our collective lives, we were a bit stumped by that one, but now we think it's because sometimes we like to get Mo to play the flute. Sometimes people make a Manchester connection, but we reckon that's because of Matt's flat-vowelled singing voice. Personally, we're all into different music and think that perhaps this comes across in the music we make. Anyway, thanks for stopping by. If you like our stuff, send us a message and we'll send you an MP3 or something. If you want to join our mailing list, please email nochatter at gmail.com. Byeeeeee.
If they've got a knack for great pop in common, where they diverge is in the cheeky, childlike enthusiasm here buoyed by sophisticated playing. Conversational vocals in the Alfie vein get the finest flute this side of Belle & Seb. Lovely stuff. – Teletext
Strong vocals, the reinvention of the flute and witty, tale-telling lyrics atop slick, literate music - where have this lot been hiding? - James Ellis, Metro
Space cadet indie folk for stoners ... should be poncing about in chaffeur driven limos before the year is out - Front Magazine
