OK, hands up who remembers the album, 'Fuchsia' from 1971? Hands-up who loves the mix of acid-folk, progressive rock, strings and songs? Yeah, me too.

Me and My Kites are a new band, from Sweden.

Why is that relevant? They are named after a song on Fuchsia's album, which must say something about their influences and, on their first-ever single, it's all the more appropriate as Fuchsia's original lead singer Tony Durant wrote and now sings a new version of Fuchsia's song 'The Band' on the a-side (remember those?) of this new 7" on FdM's Regal Crabomophone label. Here's an excerpt from the song - i hope you like it.

The b-side is dedicated to Kevin Ayers, and is an extended version of the Me And My Kites song, Isis' Adventure, from the band's new album, 'Like A Dream Back Then')
