 Luke Temple Releases Exclusive 7”, Celebrates France Release, Snowbeast Named To Daytrotter’s Top Albums of 2007
"a variety of romanticized and alienated imagery that's snatched straight from a time when squares were there to be looked at and made strange... Temple's various gifts amplify each other." - Pitchfork (7.4) “Mr. Temple isn’t part of any particular school — not even that all-purpose new songwriters’ catchall, freak-folk — and his private world is fascinating.” – Jon Pareles, New York Times “Temple’s dreamscape lyrics, playful instrumentation and warm, ethereal tenor deftly nudge the would-be boundaries of the singer-songwriter tag.” – Paste “If it were just his songwriting we would be in love with these songs, but there is so much more…” - David Dye, host of World Café After what may have been the best performance at SXSW 2008, Luke Temple is back home in Brooklyn writing and recording new material. Luke will also be playing some select northeast dates with Beach House and Peter Morén of Peter Bjorn and John. Luke stunned a packed out Presbyterian Church in Austin with new and old songs—many from his most recent full-length Snowbeast. The album was recently named one of the “Top 15 Albums of 2007” by Daytrotter.
