Laneous and the Family Yah new EP released next week
Posted: Feb 10 2011

Brisbane’s Laneous & The Family Yah make Grunty Soul and Croon Punk for your earholes. Alternatively cheerful, smooth and demented, Laneous navigates his band through fiercely syncopated, occasionally bombast and otherwise wobbly grooves with his trademark falsetto croon and charming hip hop murmurs.


The new single ‘Oh She’ comes from the bands 8th Official Release, the ‘Scissors’ EP (18 Feb) – the first installment of the ‘Found Things Collection’ - a series of 3 EP’s that they will roll out across 2011. Hot off the back of their critically acclaimed sophomore album ‘Found Things’ (Creative Vibes), each EP in this series will see L&TFY dismantle and explore the many musical ideas on ‘Found Things – leading with a complete re-imagining of an album track and then followed by a handful of tracks in a similar musical vein. ‘Scissors’ opens with an embrace of all things melodic – diving from soul and neo soul into the avant-garde and oriental ballad.
