The Sound Of Curves, England In 1819, Ledaswan and Ocean Versus Daughter at Limelight, Friday June 8th

 


"Comprised of a father and two sons, England in 1819 is indie-chamber rock: beautiful haunting melodies, sized up and spread out in the post-rock vein, with atmosphere and thoughtfulness building to massive ending-anthems (often compared to Sigur Ros, Elbow and Copeland).

England in 1819 is currently on tour throughout the South, promoting the release of their new album Alma. England in 1819's videographer, Stephen Kinigopoulos (New Orleans) creates their characteristic music videos that set them apart, with over 100,000 views on YouTube."
