Austin Texas’s Love Inks are gearing up for the start of their first ever UK tour in a couple of weeks, along with the limited edition 7” release of ‘Rock On’/’Be Brave’ (Sept 19th, Hell, Yes! recordings). After recently streaming the brand new ‘Be Brave’, they’ve now uploaded a creepy new video to go with the sweet vibed, pop rendition of 70s classic ‘Rock On’ by Dave Essex.
Watch it here:
Focussing around musical duo & married couple Sherry LeBlanc and Kevin Dehan, Love Inks have already built quite a following in the UK with their last single ‘Blackeye’ winning the fan-voted BB6 6Music Rebel Playlist and their debut album, released earlier this year, getting many great reviews.
The combined sound is minimalist dream-pop; imbued with raw emotion, sexuality, and splashes of electronic colour. Focus is placed primarily on the voice, which is direct and honest and real. No frills, tears through extravagant side roads, or indulgent solos necessary. The recording process was drawn out on a piece of paper in schematics before recording with the concept being simply: the less digitized, the better.
