小简介

Three siblings from North London, Kitty, Daisy and Lewis have set the British roots-rock scene on its ear with their infectious energy and authentic approach to rockabilly, vintage country and first-generation rhythm and blues -- not to mention the fact the youngest member of the trio hasn't yet reached her teens when they released their first single in 2005. Kitty Durham, Lewis Durham and Daisy Durham were born into a musical family -- their father Graeme Durham is a guitarist who is also a top engineer at one of London's leading record mastering facilities, the Exchange, while their mother, Ingrid Weiss, played drums with the pioneering post-punk band the Raincoats. In 2002, while attending an afternoon rockabilly gig hosted by Big Steve and the Arlenes with their parents, Lewis was invited to sit in with the band on banjo, while Kitty hopped behind the drum kit and kept time. The next time Big Steve played at the Durhams' local pub, Lewis and Kitty were once again brought up to the stage, while Daisy joined in on accordion, and the kids decided it was time to form a band of their own. Wanting to fill out their sound, Graeme was drafted as a rhythm guitarist and Irene took up upright bass to join the family combo. As the youngsters began displaying a greater range of talent -- Lewis plays guitar, lap steel and piano along with the banjo, while Kitty handles percussion, harmonica, ukulele and guitar and Daisy sings and plays piano as well as drums -- they became an act to watch on the UK Americana circuit, and began recording their own material. Lewis put together a make-shift studio in their home using vintage analog recording gear, and in 2005 the kids released their first single, "Honolulu Rock", with Kitty 12 years of age, Lewis 14 and Daisy the oldest at 16. A second single, "Mean Son Of A Gun", hit shops a year later; it was released as a seven-inch 45 and in a limited edition 10-inch 78-rpm pressing. A third single, "Going Up The Country", was scheduled for release in July 2008 as a preview of Kitty, Daisy and Lewis's first full-length album.
