HUSKY RESCUE - NIGHTLESS NIGHT
Nightless Night (Radio Edit) / Nightless Night (Fink Remix) / Nightless Night (Justus Kohncke Remix) / Nightless Night (Black Grass Remix)
CATSKILLS RECORDS

An indie rock four piece who write songs that take all the best bits of The Throwing Muses, Echobelly and Belly, distilling them into dizzy three minute nuggets; Husky Rescue are a female fronted pop group with style.
NIGHTLESS NIGHT the bands latest single is a song that skips into your life bringing a ray of sunshine with it; a spirited slice of upbeat indie pop, Husky Rescue unleashing joyous melodies and big bouncy guitar riffs, a sun soaked pop song for these dark winter months ahead. Ice cool female vocals coo out the insistent melodies whilst the band pick out an impeccable slice of indie pop.
Of the various remixes, FINK transforms matters into some electronic jazz lounge excursion, JUSTUS KOHNCKE goes indie pop meets deep trance and BLACK GRASS inject an infectious lo fi charm to proceedings.

BIOGRAPHY
Having achieved critical acclaim for their debut album COUNTRY FALLS and wowed audiences world wide with their hypnotic live sets, Husky Rescue return with the second single release from their forthcoming second album GHOST IS NOT REAL - which is scheduled for release in January 2007. NIGHTLESS NIGHT sees Husky Rescue take their unique blend of widescreen electronica and fragile folk into more up-tempo than usual.
A rocking ode to country living pitched somewhere between Blondie and The Primitives.
Whilst their debut album COUNTRY FALLS was held together by a soothing ambience, GHOST IS NOT REAL, is carried along by a much more melancholy mood altogether. This edgier sound is gently hinted at by previous single DIAMONDS IN THE SKY, and with NIGHTLESS NIGHT with the single providing the perfect appetiser for the delights to come. As with previous single DIAMONDS IN THE SKY, NIGHTLESS NIGHT will be backed by a top drawer selection of remixes - this time from Fink, Justus Kohncke and Black Grass.
