Gravenhurst is a band from Bristol, England signed to Warp Records. Their latest album, Fires in Distant Buildings, was released in October 2005. The singer, guitarist and songwriter, Nick Talbot, is also one half of self-described “Victorian Clockworktronica” ensemble, Bronnt Industries Kapital.
Nick Talbot also recorded some solo works under the pseudonym of Exercise One (the name presumably taken from the song by Joy Division, of whom Nick is a known admirer). These releases were “Sonar Valley” (HUSH001) and “Serial” (HUSH004) on his own Silent Age label.
Gravenhurst’s music is often described as dark and highly atmospheric, veering between the noisy shoegazing sound of guitar bands such as My Bloody Valentine, and the more traditional singer-songwriter territory of Simon and Garfunkel, Bert Jansch and Nick Drake. Earlier releases were grounded in acoustic and folk styles, while Fires in Distant Buildings made moves towards psychedelic rock. Flying Saucer Attack, a cult Bristol outfit who released a series of feedback-drenched, folk-inspired albums in the early 1990s, have been cited by Talbot as a major influence.
Gravenhurst have recorded cover versions of Hüsker Dü’s “Diane”, and “See My Friends” by The Kinks.
A constant in the Gravenhurst sound is Talbot’s fragile voice and unsettling and mysterious lyrical themes.
Talbot keeps a weblog entitled “The Police Divers Notebook”.
A fifth album is due for release on September 10th 2007. It is entitled “The Western Lands”, and the tracklisting is: 01. Saints 02. She Dances 03.

Hi, I am currently looking for bands, musicians and other performers that might be interested in performing at the Southbank Club in Southville, Bristol. The Southbank Club is a popular Arts Venue in South Bristol. I am currently working on our April to June program of events and am looking for local bands that would be interested in working with us. We put on a variety of music and arts events; including a community market (with music, poetry and arts workshops) open mic sessions and gigs and dance nights for more well known bands. Please could you get in contact with me by email if this is something you would be interested in? We are hoping to be promoting the April-June over the next few weeks, so if you are interested in playing during this time, please get back to us as soon as you can! I look forward to hearing from you, Jessie jessicamarycooke@yahoo.co.uk

Had a horrible mushroom trip sparked by Song Among the Pine. Can barely listen to that song anymore without freaking out. Gravenhurst is a decent band.

I've heard talk of a repress of 'Internal Travels' for some time, but it hasn't happened. The reason is that it isn't owned by Warp, it's on Nick's own Silent Age label and he doesn't have the cash flow to press thousands of copies in advance yet, but he said it is coming soon. You can buy the mp3s at Bleep.com for now. I recommend 'The High Seas' and 'Meet The Family' too. Nick really undersells it, he is too self-critical. You can hear 'The High Seas' here: http://www.silentagerecords.co.uk/The%20High%20Seas.mp3 Nick is playing solo shows currently as has been rumoured to have played this track.
