Bio: Deftly-wonderful Yorkshire trio, Sky Larkin are set to translate all the goodwill and affection they have garnered since 2007 into solid-bodied success over the next ... (more) 18 months.

Newly settled back in Leeds where they began (following various freshly-completed academic pursuits), preparations are afoot to follow on from recent successes. After releasing two singles – the jaunty ‘One of Two’ and new-no-wave classic ‘Molten’ – on Dance To The Radio in 2007, the trio released an EP, Swit Swoo. Featuring covers of songs by Travis Morrison (ex-Dismemberment Plan), Patti Smith, Queens of the Stone Age and Jake Thackray (another child of Yorkshire) this spring. In May this year, the band headed Stateside to record their debut album; following in the footsteps of long-time touring partners Los Campesinos! by working with producer John Goodmanson (Sleater-Kinney, Death Cab For Cutie, Nada Surf).

Already Lauded by the likes of NME, Artrocker, BBC’s Huw Stephens and Steve Lamacq and Drowned in Sound, and featured in The Times, The Guardian and The Independent, the Larkin will be releasing the first single from their forthcoming album later in the Summer. (less)
