The Certain Three Katie Kim, The Lost Brothers, Puzzle Muteson

€15/12 / Now in its third year, the Certain Three Tour returns in January 2012 for a ten date run. The creation of Irish based booking agency Word of Mouth, the idea is to feature three acts each with something different to offer and send them out as a triple bill with an alternating running order. The two previous tours have featured O Emperor, We Cut Corners, Alessi’s Ark and The Ambience Affair amongst others.

Carefully chosen for the 2012 tour are three acts, who have created a significant stir during 2011.
Katie Kim, The Lost Brothers, Puzzlemuteson

Katie Kim is the pseudonym of Katie Sullivan, who performs and records slowcore, ethereal, ambient folk/pop, paired with vocals that have been compared to Zola Jesus, Coco Rosie, Cat Power and Joanna Newsom, the music revolves and swims around layers of fuzzy drips and murky clouds but always seems to come to an elegant conclusion.

The Lost Brothers
Since the release of their acclaimed debut album, “Trails of the Lonely”, the Lost Brothers have kept on the move, calling no place their home.

2011 alone seen them perform in London on the same bill as Bob Dylan & Van Morrison, they opened the main stage at this summer’s Electric Picnic festival, and they have been busy in Nashville recording with Brendan Benson of the Raconteurs.

Puzzle Muteson is the alter ego of an enigmatic songwriter from the Isle of Wight, who renders his music in a tremulous tenor over a finely spun web of fingerpicked guitar.

Born in London on the Isle of Dogs, the southern English island provided unexpected shelter for the shuddering transformation into one-man band Puzzle Muteson.

After obsessively listening to Puzzle Muteson’s own raw tapes, producer- arranger duo Valgeir Sigurðsson and Nico Muhly nurtured the songs that now inhabit his debut recording “En Garde”, released via Valgeir’s Bedroom Community label. The record shimmers with the signature value of Puzzle’s collaborators who have previously worked with the likes of Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy, Antony &the Johnsons), Sam Amidon and many others.
