God Help the Girl

I'm a huge Belle & Sebastian fan. The lead singer, Stuart Murdoch is probably one of my favorite songwriters. His new sixties pop and rock n' roll are subtle enough to be cool and I think his melodies are hummable and beautiful. Lately old Stu has been fraternizing with some of his female cohorts , and a newbie Catherine Ireton who graced the cover of B&S's White Collar Boy single.


His side project is called God Help the Girl and their album is a product of his searching and soliciting for online talent via imeeem, enter Asya from Smoosh, online finds Brittany Stallings and Dina Bankole, and Neil Hannon of the Divine Comedy. However it's Catherine Ireton who steals the show (see for yourself). Their album will be released this June 23rd.
