zoey van goey,

another glasgow music showcase following on from our john b mckenna & big face features earlier in the month. this time around: zoey van goey.

the trio, none of which actually come from glasgow (canada, ireland and england) have been playing the fine city over the course of the last year. so far best described as folk-pop with an electronic tinge. their debut single "foxtrot vandals"was produced by belle and sebastian frontman stuart murdoch and got a limited 7" release, still available in physical format here or on itunes. they're now gearing up for the release of their second single and a slot at the rockness festival.

likened to the postal service, and not unlike their mentor's own group, this lot are hotly tipped to breakthrough in '08, in the indie circles at least. they actually played my student union in dundee last week. sadly i only found out afterwards. it's just typical, the place puts on absolute dross all year until i finish my exams and move back to glasgow then they put on something decent.
