Pete Fij and Terry Bickers
Just recently, I've been greatly enjoying the
melancholy beauty of 'Out of Time', a new
single by indie veterans Pete Fij, formerly
of Adorable, and Terry Bickers, from The House
of Love and Levitation. Clicking around the
ol' interweb a few hours ago, I noticed that
the duo are among the forthcoming attractions
at a really tiny venue, not a million miles
away, so I took a moment to check out more of
their material - and blow me down if each
successive tune wasn't better than the last.
The videos are just fantastic too. I
immediately headed back to the venue's
webpage and bagged myself a ticket.

All three songs are very good, aren't they? I particularly like 'Betty Ford'. Not heard of Pete Fij before. Lazy comparisons? Low, Richard Hawley and The Kinks? This is a good thing.
It's a great album. Brilliant songs from an extremely talented duo. Really looking forward to catching them live in Australia...hopefully one day!
Good comparisons by SB. You keep doing it TS, you keep introducing me to these great finds. Another gig too, you lucky guy. I love this stuff
