| Field Music Back At The Double |

 20 tracks of pure ROCK! Or not.....
Sunderland's Field Music are set to return with a new 20 track double album, to be released by Memphis Industries on 15th February 2010. Powered, as ever, by brothers and co-front men Peter and David Brewis, Field Music's line up now includes Kev Dosdale (guitar and keys) and Ian Black (bass). The new album , “Field Music (Measure)”, can be seen as the Brewis' reconnection with classic rock mixed with more familiarly left field fare, ranging from Led Zeppelin through to Bela Bartok, Prince, Fleetwood Mac, Miles Davis, The Beatles, Bowie, Richard Thompson, PJ Harvey, Crazy Horse, Erik Satie, Kate Bush, Talk Talk, Lou Reed, Brian Eno, The Blue Nile, Pierre Schaeffer, Roxy Music, Penguin Cafe Orchestra, Todd Rundgren and Discipline-era King Crimson. Perhaps thankfully, there is no concept to be found across the 20 tracks, just the band stretching out over the many influences that have informed both the Field Music albums and their solo work. They will also be touring in later 2010.
