the wendy house

a loose knit grouping of kindred musical spirits

About Me

we were drinking lots of tea and trying to get some control over our musical futures when we decided to spend our time doing something fun, constructive and creative, and the wendy house began. a gathering of lovely and talented scottish musicians have been, well, gathered.....and the first wendy house compilation will be launched in glasgow in april. those lucky enough to live anywhere near scotland can come and enjoy the music in person, and you can all buy the music through the wonders of paypal (from april) or at least check out our respective websites and have a listen / drop us a line. we love all the music to be on the album and we hope you will too.the wendy house are:1) attic lights www.atticlights.co.uk ; www.myspace.com/atticlights. "the best unsigned band in the country at the moment" (the music show, bbc scotland)2) finniston www.finniston.com ; www.myspace.com/finniston. "brother and sister steven and jolene have created a gem with their EP.... folk music for the masses" (Jim Gellatly)3) vivien scotson www.vivienscotson.com "The haunting vocal talent that she has is something you don’t come across very often, and when you do it leaves a lasting impression on you. "4) the boy lacks patience www.theboylackspatience.com ; www.myspace.comtheboylackspatience. "classical licks from an angry beethoven meets ben folds with a strangely pleasing hint of julie andrews..."5) the state broadcasters www.thestatebroadcasters.com "The state broadcasters are bloody good. Mix two tablespoons of floaty Americana with a soupcon of folk-pop and you're starting to get the flavour." - The Fly6) evan crichton http://www.myspace.com/evancrichton www.evancrichton.com
