Now, here comes this lazy blogger's lazy, cut-and-paste job:
"MONKEY SWALLOWS THE UNIVERSE are an acoustic indiepop band from Sheffield, centred around the original founding duo of NAT JOHNSON & KEVIN GORI, who formed the band in 2004. The band expanded in 2005 to include CATHERINE TULLY on violin, ANDY GEORGE on cello & ROB DEAN on drums."
On tour, they've supported the likes of RICHARD HAWLEY, CAMERA OBSCURA, and THE LONG BLONDES.
Nat's the singer, by the way -- and she's a "she." I'd describe her voice as "fetching." Funny thing about Brit lass singers, though -- no matter how prim 'n' pretty the pipes, one feels somehow certain that they're entirely capable of snuffing out a cigarette on your unsuspecting eyeball or twisting the business-end of a broken Guinness bottle into your unguarded groin if you cross them....

I like it but I think it looked better on the previous post. The line-spacing was better - looks a bit too densely packed this time.
