Little Doses have been entertaining Scottish crowds from their hometown base of Edinburgh since May 2006. Their first 2 song demo E.P attracted much interest, both from within the industry and without, including XFM Radio plays, a slot at last years Tbreak finals and over 35,000 Myspace listens. The new “Chemical Session” demos promise to push them even further.
While Kirsten Ross’ vocals have invited comparisons to P.J Harvey and Stevi Nicks, the pounding rhythm section of Mark McClelland (Snow Patrol) and Michael Branagh (Degrassi) comes over like a beefed up Grandaddy taking Elastica’s best hooks to the prom with a half bottle of Makers Mark in one pocket and a three pack of Trojan in the other!
Newly inaugurated guitarist, Richard Beeby, blasts the band off in new and startling directions. Initially “helping out” the band, after their previous guitarist ran off to join the circus, he demanded the full time position early 2008.
The band has grown in stature and confidence over the past year, accruing a small yet enthusiastic fanbase and many glowing reviews. Word of mouth is a powerful force and appearances at last year’s Wickerman Festival and Tbreak finals has helped to cement Little Doses’ reputation for a ferocious live show.
