Synopsis

Product Description
Standard Fare may be named after a sign spotted on a bus, but the effect is anything but pedestrian these Sheffield indie poppers are the kind of band whose name you'd happily scrawl on the cover of your school exercise book. A power trio comprising Emma Kupa, Danny How and Andy Beswick, they're set to release their debut album.Recorded in six days with an indie aesthetic that would have made John Peel proud, the album is named for a formative period in the band's development when they travelled across the channel to play at a festival in Noyelles Sous

Hop on Board
Richard Hine | 03/27/2010
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Standard Fare, Sheffield's newest musical export, leap out of the gate with a sound that's at once familiar, unique, melancholy and energetic. The three-piece band consists of Andy Bez on drums, Danny How on guitar and Emma Kupa on bass and vocals. It's a sound that will likely please anyone who's a fan of lyrically driven Brit/tweepop. On most songs, Kupa's distinctive vocals carry the day. (With shades of The Long Blondes, Kenickie, even Florence and the Machine.) On others, Danny How joins in to give the album a Belle & Sebastian/Camera Obscura vibe. This is an album that combines youthful exuberance, intelligent/smart-alecky lyrics with the knowing undertones that, "Fifteen"-age kicks aside, "we're all getting older so much faster." Hopefully this debut album will be the start of a long and successful musical journey. So hop on board. Cough up the Standard Fare. Take a seat at the back of the bus. And give it a listen."
