Great up and coming English Band
Posted by Simon Strom on July 18, 2008 at 9:03 pmNoah and the Whale. I would love to see them live, but alas, I live far far away. I believe they are based in London now. Anyway, I hope you enjoy.

This one is from La Blogotheque. They set up live performances in Paris (usually while on the go in public places). This shows how good they sound live.

Noah and the Whale lead singer with Laura Marling (also very good) in London Black Cab.

Noah and the Whale are interesting………that tune gets in your head.
๐ ๐ Your man in The Script is like a junior Sting, good song though….hadn’t heard them…..Proud Mary are excellent…..heard them before.
I wanna go to this Parisian bar!…..some great stuff on these albums. Listening to a lot of it these days ๐

heard Noah and the Whale on the radio today about 15 min after reading this thread, how weird is that ๐ฎ

NOAHWAY!
Lyrics and lead (p)uke by George Formby.
Could be Eurovision type crap pap except itยดs so dull.
Will lead to mass suicide if heard in Bridgend.Bring back Lee Marvin. He had a better voice.
Like Peter, just my opinion….even though weยดre all wrong.

I dunno..
I reckon great music recording is mainly down to the producers. . Great aural soundscapes are not created by individual artists but are the sum of the artist, the producer and the sound engineers. The Beatles would never have achieved anything if it wasn’t for the creative input and guidance of George Martin.
I think that finally we are beginning to recognise this fact with the recent accolades poured upon Mark Ronson – he’s not a rock or pop star but a talented music producer.
The Sugarbabes "about you now" must rank as one of the greatest pop songs ever made. But not because of any of the creative input from any of the "sugarbabes" themselves, but because of the work of the sound engineer that produced the recording.

totally agree with you phil, one of the brilliant jobs i would love to dabble in ๐ my friends husband is a sound engineer, and i have been offered to see him work from start to finish at a gig, one of his jobs is doing the edinburgh hogmany music ๐
