JOHNNY FOREIGNER | GRACE AND THE BIGGER PICTURE



Ghosts for Criminals
by Righex

They'll prefer the ghosts rather than the pacman, loves robots and ironically find romance boring, "Grace and The Bigger Picture" is their second album. Just got hooked to the awesome trio recently. Started digging and looking for their music and videos. Formed from the remnants of Panda Love Unit and Twist, Johnny Foreigner is Kelly Southern on Bass, Alex Berrow on guitars and Junior Laidley on drums. It's Kelly and Alex on vocals . At first I thought this was a solo artist, Johnny Foreigner is initially a prototype for a country band. The online music magazine "Drowned In Sound" rated their EP "Arcs Across The Sea" a perfect 10. The released a number of successful, sold out singles after signing to Best Before Records. They supported Hundred Reasons and Los Campesinos!

Fast-paced British Fun Pop-Indie, their first single "Feels Like Summer" has a music video which you can find on youtube.  It's the first official video I found by them. And you could find video of interviews and live performances all over England and North America. Their sound is cheerful, indie, noisypop and punk rock. The guitar riffs are amazing, bass and drums twists here and there. Like a punk rock cross between Mates of State/Triple Fast Action and Rainer Maria.
