Tindersticks are a rock band from Nottingham, England. Their sound is characterised by a synthesis of orchestral backing, lounge jazz, and soul; the lush orchestrations of multi-instrumentalist Dickon Hinchliffe (who left the band in 2006) and the smoky baritone of lead vocalist Stuart A. Staples are the band's hallmarks. Tindersticks have employed electric guitars, as most rock bands have done, but augment their instrumentation with a wide array of instruments: Rhodes piano, glockenspiel, vibraphone, violin, trumpet, trombone, clarinet, bassoon, Hammond organ, and many more are prominently utilised in the music of Tindersticks. The band has a cult following in the United Kingdom and continental Europe, although their sound has never made significant inroads into the mainstream.
This selection has been lovingly crafted by Pierre. Enjoy.

Cool! I've heard so much about them, I wanted to check them out. But the pwd doesn't seem to work. I tried lower case, upper case, the blog address, nothing. Any idea?
ReplyDeleteSorry to all, it wasn't, indeed, the correct link.
ReplyDeleteEverything should be working now.
Anybody who's new to Tindersticks HAS to hear the song Travelling Light. It isn't represented here and that's fine...go seek it out. This is another great baistophe regardless.
ReplyDeleteCheers,
I saw them a few weeks ago in Boston. Fantastic gig. Have not been in town since 1994! They were long overdue! Thanks.
