Ba

The Ba -formed by guitarist and songwriter Nick Jacobs, co-founder of Bristol arthouse indie-rockers Blue Aeroplanes, with a name based on the first sound made by any child in any culture. The band was originally active 1976-78 and recently reformed. The music is straight down the line from that time, not exactly punk, but very much reflecting the mood of that era: described variously as an alchemical fusion of Syd Barrett and Dr Feelgood and like a more primitive Talking Heads played by people who've never heard Talking Heads. Back in the day, played the Roxy and Dingwalls, and supported Johnnny Thunders ('We came close to blowing them off stage!') A remastered tape is in the pipeline. Brilliant, can't wait \nGet Set Go I hate everyone as featured on Greys Anatomy is a lyrically incisive and despite it's title wonderfully uplifting tune, has a Weezer vibe without really sounding like them, see also King Missile. \nMontpellier Psychedelic emotive indie rock, nods to early Verve later Stone Roses as well as the likes of Mansun very accomplished playing and they've tons of top tunes.
