GEORGE PRINGLE DEBUT ALBUM – Salon des Refusés

GEORGE PRINGLE DEBUT ALBUM – Salon des Refusés

RELEASED ON 7th SEPTEMBER ON DETH TO FALS METAL

An electro diarist proffering a unique insight in to the highs and lows, discos and downtime,
George Pringle self-releases her long anticipated debut album: Salon des Refusés, on 7th September.

24 year old Fine Art graduate, Pringle delivers each of her songs in an inimitable spoken-word style, projected as “cinematic mini-epics” on notepads, typewriters and laptops. Her debut EP release Poor EP, Poor EP without a name met with critical acclaim upon its release in February 2008. Since then, Pringle has released a single on Trouble Records LCD I love you but you're bringing me down...which went on to become Steve Lamacq's single of the week, and toured the country supporting acts as diverse as Does It Offend You, Yeah?, Crystal Castles and Aidan Moffat. She’s even featured on Radio 3’s poetry and literature show The Verb, holding her own alongside literati guests including Seamus Heany.

A true DIY artist, Pringle wrote, recorded and produced the record herself. Creating entire pieces on her laptops (named Truman and Blanche, respectively) before teaming up again with Stereolab's Andy Ramsay to mix the record. Ever one to take matters into hand, saving money and teaming up with investors in order to finish and release the record.

George first began recording demos on a broken two-deck Karaoke machine at home during the school holidays as a teenager. She also pinched French Oral examination tape recorders whilst at boarding school and recorded late at night in the school hall, using the assembly microphone. She played alone, and in bands, before abandoning guitar for Garageband music software. Pringle has now become a ‘Diseuse’ (a female performer of monologues) and gigs Karaoke-style, challenging the status quo to create music that is fresh and daring.
