Electrophonvintage - The Lexington

I've always been aware of Electrophonvintage's slightly FM sound, veering towards the Semisonic. Or Beautiful South, suggested my attractive young ladyfriend. Either perfect for a long car journey to the one you love, or I've been watching their 'Where you're not' video too much.

Liked them better when the girl was a full time member of the band, she spends half the show sat at the side of the stage, looking radiant, but not doing very much.

Its magic when she cranks up the melodica. Then again the more upbeat numbers are growing on me.

Their humour was lost in translation tonight. And the lyrics were a bit mumbly, difficult to make out, or maybe I'm going deaf, which is more likely to be honest.
