Keith Austin Murray (‘Keith’) and Christopher Ian Cain (‘Christopher I. Cain’) are back. Armed with a new single, and a record that sees them return to the stripped-down production sensibilities of W.A.S.’s gold-selling debut, With Love & Squalor, whilst continuing to hone the melodic knack that has made them popular with fans and men who work for months at sea.
The duo have also announced a show at Hoxton Bar & Grill on February 23, which sold out in record time (3 minutes and 25 seconds to be precise). The bands first show in London since December 2008, will see them recruit Andy Burrows (former hitter-guy to Razorlight) to drum.
The album, ‘Barbara’ was recorded in NYC, London and Los Angeles, and will be released in June. With the first single “Rules†hitting the streets on April 5.
