Excelsior modernist pop

Pale Blue Eyes' excelsior modernist pop music comes from Devon and Sheffield - via stop-overs in Iceland, KLF-land and the Steel City home of British electronic music.


Pale Blue Eyes' own Penquit Mill studio has been crucial here. The PBE studio sits in the Devon greenery, with buzzards wheeling overhead, just south of Dartmoor. To create the studio, the band members took out a bank loan and worked pretty much anywhere that would provide a wage - at a soup factory, at music festivals, in greenhouses and cinemas, running bars at disturbing corporate events, as a tree surgeon's assistant. The core of PBE debut album Souvenirs was written and recorded by Sheffield's Lucy Board and South Devon's Matt Board. Matt and Lucy were married in 2018, years after meeting at art college.
