 Artist BIO
Michael Knight are a Dublin/Berlin-based indie pop group. They mix blackly comic (and sometimes even genuinely affecting) lyrics & multiple vocalists with an intricate musical backdrop. They could be, and have been, compared to music as diverse as the Beach Boys (vocal harmonies), Burt Bacharach (arrangements), spaghetti western soundtracks (guitars & whistles), mariachi music (military style drums), Motown (pounding rhythms), twee (er, twee), and church music. While nonetheless, somehow, sounding consistent throughout.

VIDEO SYNOPSYS
A mutually parasitic but sadly inescapable marriage of the stylish black humour of Vladimir Nabokov and the sophisticated pop sensibilities of Burt Bacharach, sung deadpan and upholstered with tinkly pianos, loud guitars and sweeping strings. Ironically comic lyrics, catchy tunes. |
