“Lawrence (there is never a surname mentioned in press or publicity) is possibly the last enigmatic legend of British Independent Music. His musical projects span three decades :- the unspeakably beautiful guitar pop of Felt in the 80s, the glam-rock propelled, wryly iconoclastic Denim in the 90s and his current project, the wildly comedic yet almost unclassifiable Go Kart Mozart. His work under these various guises have earned him a significant cult status, as well as a reputation as a determined and uncompromising outsider.”

“"The band are comprised of two Bristol-based musicians Agathe Max, violinist and Gareth Turner. As a classically trained violinist, Max claims that she has “… always tried to avoid boundaries between musical genres in order to create bridges and freedom that allows the instrument to express its potential.” and that “in KURO I feel that I just find the balance between experimentation and a more classical approach in the melodies and harmonies but here again I think more in terms of layers than notes.” On this debut release, this comes together through Max and sound engineer Turner’s combination of psych, drone and ambience.”
