Violette Records is the label formed as a platform for Michael Head (Shack, The Pale Fountains) and has since developed into a cultural hub for music, literature, and the arts. Bright eyed, tousle-headed, and with a look halfway between penitence and innocence, James Leesley (aka Studio Electrophonique) conjures a sound akin to the dream where Bill Ryder-Jones fronts The Velvet Underground with echoes of Cherry Ghost drifting in there for good measure. Cinematic, melodic, warm - efficient in arrangement yet intricate in detail.
