Smile Down Upon Us

A match made in MySpace, whereby the London, United Kingdom (specifically Hanbury Street, E1) pair of Keiron Phelan and David Sheppard exchange bits of songs with Tokyo, Japan vocalist MoomLooo via various carrier services. An eponymous debut album is ready for release soon on Static Caravan in the UK and Yacca in Japan. MoomLooo provides vocals, synthesizers, drum machines, and ambient sounds. Keiron employs the acoustic guitar, ukulele, banjo, mandolin, pizzicato violin, bass guitar, electric piano, organ, omnichord, flute, recorders, tin whistle, glockenspiel, percussion, clapping, chimes, and the spoken voice. David lends his hand to acoustic, nylon and tenor guitars, ukulele, baritone ukulele, 4 and 5 string banjos, bowed mandolin, bass guitar, organ, drums, drum machine, percussion, glockenspiel, clapping, chimes, and the obligatory fold-up bike.
