About This Release ....................................... : : : A band that takes its name from a French children's : : television series about a boy and his dog would almost : : have to be precious, and, to be certain, Belle & : : Sebastian is precious. But "precious" can be a damning : : word, and Belle & Sebastian doesn't have the negative : : qualities that the word connotes ù they are private but : : not insular, pretty but not wimpy; they make gorgeous, : : delicate melodies sound full-bodied. Led by : : guitarist/vocalist Stuart Murdoch, the seven-piece band : : has an intimate, majestic sound that is equal parts : : folk-rock and '60s pop, but Murdoch's gift for not only : : whimsy and surrealism, but also for odd, unsettling : : lyrical detail keeps the songs grounded in a tangible : : reality. : : Based in Glasgow, Scotland, Belle & Sebastian released : : their first two albums in 1996 at the peak of the : : chamber-pop movement. At first, some critics in : : Britain's music weeklies tied the band into the : : subgenre, yet the group was too pretty, too delicate, : : to bear that label. Through their first two years of : : public existence, the band shielded their : : personalities, submitting publicity photos featuring a : : girl that wasn't in the band and reluctantly posing for : : photo shoots. Furthermore, they performed in odd : : venues, playing not only the standard coffeehouses and : : cafes, but also homes, church halls, and libraries. : : : : The idiosyncratic approach to building their career : : isn't surprising given Murdoch's approach toward : : beginning a band. A longtime fan of Felt, Murdoch left : : Glasgow for London in the early '90s in hopes of : : finding the group's leader Lawrence, but he never found : : his idol. Upon his return to Glasgow he enrolled in : : university and he began writing songs and short : : stories. While at school, he took a music business : : course where he decided to form a band and release a : : record for his final project (he had tried to form a : : band before to no success). For the project, he : : assembled the seven-piece Belle & Sebastian, featuring : : himself on guitar and vocals, choosing and recruiting : : members by instinct in a local all-night cafe in late : : 1995. He eventually found Sarah Martin (violin), Stevie : : Jackson (guitar), Chris Geddes (keyboards), Stuart : : David (bass), Richard Colburn (drums), and Isobel : : Campbell (cello). All seven members were college : : students, and all agreed that the idea behind the band : : was to stay on a small scale, to keep it as a project : : and not let the band run their lives; they even assumed : : they would release two albums and break up. In May of : : 1996, they self-released their debut album Tigermilk on : : Electric Honey Records. Only 1,000 copies of the album, : : which was only pressed on vinyl, were released, but it : : unexpectedly became a sensation, earning terrific word : : of mouth throughout England. As a result, the band : : became slightly more than a school project ù it became : : an actual band. If You're Feeling Sinister, released on : : the independent Jeepster label, followed in November of : : 1996. By the time the album was released in America on : : the EMI subisdiary the Enclave, it had earned : : considerable critical acclaim in the U.K. ù not only : : from music weeklies, but from newspapers like The : : Sunday Times and magazines like The Face ù and a large : : cult following; by some accounts, Tigermilk was being : : sold for as much as ú75. Over the course of 1997, word : : of mouth continued to grow in America, even as the band : : pulled out of an American tour because the Enclave went : : bankrupt and closed. : : : : As the band cult continued to build in 1997, Belle & : : Sebastian released three EPs ù Dog on Wheels (May), : : Lazy Line Painter Jane (July), and 3, 6, 9 Seconds of : : Light... (October). Each subsequent EP placed higher on : : the indie charts and received great critical acclaim. : : By the end of the year, the group finalized an American : : deal with Matador Records, issuing The Boy with the : : Arab Strap in September 1998. The following year saw : : the eagerly anticipated wide re-release of Tigermilk, : : the album that started it all. Following completion of : : 2000's Fold Your Hands Child, You Walk Like a Peasant, : : Stuart David left Belle and Sebastian to focus : : full-time on his solo project, Looper. In 2001, the : : group released two EPs - Jonathan David and I'm Waking : : Up to Us and recorded the soundtrack for Todd Solondz's : : film Storytelling. Just before the soundtrack's release : : in spring 2002, Belle and Sebastian embarked on a : : comprehensive tour of the United States and Canada, : : before returning to Europe for the summer festival : : season. : : : :...........................................................: ..
