Actress Hands, a pop group, formed in the summer of 2002 and have recorded 3 CDR-only albums up to this point of writing (summer 2007).
They’ve oft found themselves compared to My Bloody Valentine, early-70s Beach Boys, Teenage Fanclub - all that stuff…
Signing to Life Is Easy Records last year, they’ve recently toured in support of The Walkmen, British Sea Power, Dinosaur Jr, The Pipettes and The Electric Soft Parade and have just recently returned from their first full UK tour as joint headliners with gifted Glaswegians Le Reno Amps.
There have been released 4 Actress Hands singles thus far; ‘Snack Horse’ (May 2006), ‘Half An Hour’ (Oct 2006) and ‘Why The Sale?’ (split 7” with Electric Soft Parade, Nov 2006) and most recently ‘Come The Summer Days’ (May 2007).
Actress Hands’ new album ‘Boys Need Jazz’ is due for worldwide release in August 2007. She was recorded last autumn/winter at Truck Studio in Oxfordshire. The Actress Hands sound has been lovingly exaggerated on this LP that contains 10 new songs of hard rock jangle.
