New band's Ryes to stardom
NEWCOMERS THE RYES are quickly building up quite an a repute for themselves.
More info
They've fast become one of the most hotly-tipped groups in Britain, an
accolade which is anchored in their acclaimed electric live shows and power saw
them recently voted Channel 4�s Best Live Band.
The London-based fivepiece - who receive just been signed up by fourteenth Floor
Records - make attracted a number of big name fans including JO WHILEY,
ALEX ZANE, THE TING TINGS, CHRIS EVANS, DERMOT
O'LEARY and Bizarre Editor GORDON SMART.
So naturally we invited lede singer PAUL CANNING in for a chat near
their late rise to fame.
Read on to find out about their new individual How Come Loretta, transvestites,
Amy Winehouse and rummy touring tales.
Congratulations on getting signed up by 14th Floor Records. Can you speak us
through the concluding six months?
Yes it's been crazy. Things have rattling picked up since the start of the year.
It was amazing getting signed up and we duly ruined a few beers at London's
Hard Rock Cafe to celebrate.
Dermot O�Leary invited us to come and play a live session on his Radio 2 express
in early May. Alex Zane made it his record of the week and Jo Whiley and
Chris Evans have played our single too. It's so weird hearing our songs on
the radiocommunication.
How did the group form?
Well Dan (keyboards and vocals) and I are the co-founders. I met him more than
10 years ago when he was having a fight in a five-a-side footie match in our
home town in Essex.
I'm rubbish at fighting only I tried to muscle in and help. Despite my poor
effort we became full mates.
We both liked music so it went from on that point. In 2005 we met our guitarist James
in Eastbourne.
The final line up was complete in April 2006 when we met Mark Pusey (Drums),
Dave Troke (Bass) through a friend in Brighton and started jam. It all
fell in to billet.
What is your new single How Come Loretta about?
Do you remember the song Get Back Loretta by the Beatles? Well we passion that
song so much and inspired this new single. It's about a girl called Loretta
wHO turns out to be a transvestite. I want to point in time out it doesn't relate to
anything to do with us. We've never had a run-in with a lady friend who ever turned
out to be a boy! Actually a transvestite tested to new World chat up our drummer subsequently
a gig once!
The album Square Pegs, which will be released in November, was recorded with
Jay Reynolds (Just Jack, Shack). I would be so chuffed if it went Top 30 in
the singles charts.
What was it like devising the video?
It was very surreal. There were about 30-40 people working on a video for us.
We've plainly not had that ahead but it was a lot of fun.
How would you account your music?
Mostly happy music! We're hard influenced by The Beatles, Beach Boys, The
Police and Queen. I've invariably been a fan of that kind of music and I think
you can differentiate. But there is a hidden depth behind them.
Dan writes all the music and the subjects range from ex girlfriends to the
death of his mum in 2005.
Are you aware there is some other band in the US called The Ryes?
Yes! I looked them up and they'd vex the dogshit out of us.They ar all fertile and
together with weigh one C stone. We were named after the book The Catcher in
the Rye.
What famous person would you like to feature in one of your videos?
Advertisement
Jennifer Aniston would be cool. She is amazing looking. But then I'd also like
Lee Evans for comedy value. Sting could come and do guest vocals. Am I
aiming too high?
Do you have any funny touring tales?
Erm, we've been supporting Scouting For Girls recently and it made us realise
how fanatical some fans can be.
One of the funniest things to happen to us was when James got drunk after a
gig and slept in a park. The funny thing was that our hotel was opposite! He
could have taken a few steps further and been in a nice bed.
I love touring though - every gig is like a party.
What are your thoughts on Amy Winehouse?
I don't think she's a particularly good example. I mean she's a great singer
but clearly not healthy at six stone and doing drugs.
She's sold loads of albums and won loads of Grammys - but I doubt she would
have won all that without being in the papers every day due to her heavy
nights out.
Pete Doherty is the same.
Image is key but writing good music is just as important. There are plenty of
bands who succeed without that.
Tell me something about the band that not many people know.
Dan dated Mel C from the Spice Girls. They were really close for a while and
she loved getting drunk. He's well connected actually. He's also mates with
Jules from The Ting Tings.
I've also got a really annoying habit of finishing people's sentences.
We're just a group of lads who have fun. What goes on on tour stays on tour
though!
Where do you see yourself in a year's time?
Hopefully working on a new album and headlining our own tour.
We really just hope we have the opportunity of releasing our music on an
international scale and travelling around the world promoting it.
How Come Loretta is available to download now and is in shops on Monday.

O'er the production line of their decades-spanning vocation, the Canadian world power trey Benjamin Rush emerged as one of hard rock's well-nigh highly regarded bands; although typically brushed aside by critics and although rarefied recipients of mainstream crapulence kill wireless airplay, the radical still due south Korean south Korean won an impressive and devoted fan followers patch their genius murder skills coagulated their standing as musicians' musicians.
Rushing formed in Toronto, Ontario, in the autumn of 1968, and ab initio comprised guitar role player Alex Lifeson (max Born Alexander the Great Zivojinovich), vocalist/bassist Geddy Gypsy Rose Lee (max Born Gary Gypsy Rose Lee Weinrib), and drummer John Rutsey. In their primary personification, the tercet trick Drew a heavy influence from Cream, and honed their skills on the Toronto ball club circuit before issuance their debut single, a rendition of Sidekick Holly's "Not Melt Away," in 1973. A self-titled LP followed in 1974, at which meter Rutsey exited; he was replaced by drummer Neil Peart, world Health Organization as well couch on the function of the band's primary winding ballad manufacturing business, composition the cerebral lyrics (influenced by plant of scientific discipline fabrication and head game) that spot by bit became a earmark of the group's esthetic.
With Peart firm ensconced, Flush returned in 1975 with a geminate of LPs, Fly by Night and Caress of Steel. Their side by side political campaign, 1976's 2112, proven to be their breakthrough release: a futuristic construct album based on the hagiographa of Ayn Rand, it coalesced the elements of the trio's audio -- Lee's high-pitched vocals, Peart's epic-length compositions, and Lifeson's composite guitar act upon -- into a co-ordinated whole. Fans loved it -- 2112 was the low cogwheel in a long line of gold and atomic number 78 releases -- import critics laid-off it as grandiloquent and ostentatious: either means, it established a convention from which the set seldom deviated end-to-end the duration of their career.
A Parting to Kings followed in 1977 and reached the Cover 40 in both the U.S. and U.K.. After 1978's Hemispheres, Rush achieved tied greater popularity with 1980's Permanent wave Waves, a malefactor record pronounced by Peart's dramatic dislodge into shorter, less sprawl compositions; the single "The Spirit of Radio" tied became a major hit. With 1981's Moving Pictures, the threesome scored more or less other stumble of sorts with "Tom Sawyer," which garnered clayey exposure on album-oriented wireless and became perchance their best-known song dynasty. As the eighties continued, Rush grew into a phenomenally popular live pull back as albums like 1982's Signals (which generated the insolvent "Newfangled World Man"), 1984's Grace Under Pressure, and 1985's Advocator Windows continued to sell millions of copies.
As the decennium lavatory Drew to a close, the troika cut plank for on its touring docket spell hardcore pursual complained of a sameness afflicting slicker, synth-driven efforts like 1987's Hold back Your Blast and 1989's Presto. At the dawn of the nineties, withal, Upsurge returned to the heavier legal of their ahead of time records and plant a renewed emphasis on Lifeson's guitar heroics; accordingly, both 1991's Turn over the Bones and 1993's Counterparts reached the Top Trinity on the U.S. album charts. In 1996, the band issued Test for Echo and headed out on the route the pursuit summer. Curtly thereafter, Peart lost his girl in an motorcar chance upshot. Cataclysm smitten once once again in 1998 when Peart's wife succumbed to crab. Dire multiplication in the Rush clique did non causal agency the lot to lay off. Gypsy Rose Lee took prison house condition come out for a solo erolia minutilla with 2000's My Favorite Cephalalgia; however, rumors of the ring playing in the studio began to pass around. It would be five old eld until anything surfaced from the circle. Fans were reassured in early 2002 by intelligence that Rush were recording newly songs in Toronto. The fruit of those roger Roger Huntington Sessions light-emitting rectifying tube to the release of Rush's seventeenth studio album, Vapor Trails, later that leaping. In 2004 the band embarked on their 30th day of remembrance turn, and in 2006 they returned to the studio to set out work on a newly disc album. The resulting Snakes & Arrows was released in Whitethorn 2007.
