The Fair Ohs Are Dancing

The London tropical pop rock band Fair Ohs err just on the right side of fun (see my thoughts on Vampire Weekend for those who traverse to the Dark Side…), and they now have a case of tracks for ya to catch some sun to! Everything Is Dancing came out last week on their own label Honey High (you can get it here) – it hits the global shelves via Lefse on July 26. According to the boys, Everything is Dancing is influenced by West African funk, 60's Psychedelic Rock, Eritrean Guayla music and a whole heap of Fleetwood Mac. Well, I'm certainly love Rumours again right about now (and it has absolutely nothing to do with those Glee fucks), so this description is floating my boat – as are the below tracks, all off the album!

Fair Oh's Enough

Those trop-punk kids Fair Ohs are so much then their brethren. Who are? Well, I only really know Vampire Weekend, and we all know how much they piss me off, so that is nt much contest. But still, the older the London trio get, the better they sound, and this goes for the following tracks off their forthcoming album Everything Is Dancing. Its pretty electric stuff, and promises that this will be the album that shoots them into the calypso stratosphere.


Everything Is Dancing is out in the UK through their own label Honey High Records on July 6, and everywhere else via Lefse on July 26. They will be busy touring too, with shows supporting Akron Family tonight at Bush Hall in London, before having their album launch at The Victory with Cold Pumas and Sauna Youth in support. They are also supporting Tune-Yards and playing the 1234 Shoreditch Festival. London, summer is going to be Fair Ohs weather...
