The Perfect Backswing EP



Oldsolar started life as a two-piece from Glasgow and now have a fluctuating personnel of anywhere between 2 and 7 members, with a string section and a trumpet player being among the newest additions. Oldsolar's 2001 debut album, 'Many Visitors Have Been Gored By Buffalo', received widespread critical acclaim, being described as "frequently beautiful" by the NME, "a stunner of an album" by The Sunday Times and "a thing of real beauty" by The Big Issue. Comparisons ranged from pre-bombast U2 and The Blue Nile through to Mogwai, Boards of Canada and Spiritualized. Live, they supported The Reindeer Section in Glasgow at the end of 2002 and were described as "Bloody awesome" in The List's review of the show. The band are in the process of finishing off their second album, 'In Every Embrace There is Loneliness'.
