We discovered Edinburgh quintet Universal Thee on a list of forthcoming releases via digital distribution company EmuBands - and what a find!Fronted by husband and wife Lisa and James Russell, who share boy/girl vocal duties, the band produces excellent music.Their album ‘All Watched Over By Machines of Loving Grace’ is released 19 February via Eventual Heirs Records and lead single ‘Speaker’ offers a brilliant slice of unashamed alt-pop, mixed with grunge, rock and indie overtones.The video recently premiered on Clash Music with the single clocking up radio support from Jim Gellatly and a spin on BBC Radio Scotland courtesy of Vic Galloway.See them live this Friday supporting Billy Bibby [ex-Catfish & The Bottlemen] and 19 February for their official album launch - both at Sneaky Pete’s in Edinburgh.For updates visit: www.facebook.com/universalthee Watch the excellent video for ‘Speaker’ below:Olaf Furniss and Derick Mackinnon run music business night Born To Be Wide full info visit www.borntobewide.co.uk *Every week EmuBands send Derick and Olaf a full list of new releases being distributed via the company, we discovered Universal Thee through this list.
