Michael Knight:
Michael Knight are a boy/girl indie pop trio that blend timeless '60's tunesmithery with more experimental influences...odd song structures, weird chord progressions, overlapping vocals, and the like. They've been compared to The Beach Boys, Burt Bacharach, and The Divine Comedy. They began as a solo act (Richie – vocals, guitar, keys) in late 2001 before assuming their present line-up (+ Edel – vocals, bass, guitar and Lynn – vocals, drums, guitar) in late 2003. They have amassed a sizeable following, playing with the likes of Neosupervital, Random and My Brother Woody. They will be recording their debut album in the summer.
