Jeremy Warmsley makes electronica with songs in them. He lives in London and is half-French and is signed to Transgressive Records.
A songwriter since the age of seventeen, he had an epiphany in Jan 05, realised all the music he'd ever made up till then bored him, and started again from scratch. Since then his music has encompassed a curious mixtrue of the new and the old, the traditional and the atypical, all things archaic or experimental. He insists on self-producing all his songs, only bringing in other musicians to sing backing vocals.
Jeremy's live appearances are wildly unpredictable; in the past six months he has played as many times with his seven-piece backing band the LMNOPs (including laptop-ist and trombone section) as he has on his own. Recent gigs (including a tour with Regina Spektor) have seen him ably assisted by pianist Tom Rogerson, with Jeremy singing and switching between guitar, piano and percussion.
Having put out a single in June 05 and an EP in November 05, he is currently working on his next EP, "Other People's Secrets". With contributions from Adam Beach (also of Optimist Club) on bass, Tom Rogerson on piano, Matt Ingram on drums (all members of the LMNOPs), as well as a string quartet and brass section, it will be his first record to feature musicians other than himself.

“At last David Kitt and Patrick Wolf have competition in the slim field of singer-songwriters who favour techno trickery over acoustic strumming.” – Time Out
"A veritable treat of benign folk and skewed Beck-isms... Undeinably important" – The Fly
“A mighty one-man show…like being blasted in the face by Rufus wainwright wielding a drum machine. He truly shines, effortlessly sliding into the uncomplicated keys and vocals of ‘A Matter of Principle’ as a much shouted for encore. Jeremy Warmsley hits all the right soft spots.” – NME
tour support comes from:
Rose Kemp: Just turned 21 and blessed with an impossibly rich and reaching voice, sometimes accompanied by shimmering electric guitars, sometimes looping itself into complex, sumptuous, harmonised hooks, or sometimes simply rising unadorned and a’cappella to silence a room. One of the most mutable modern artists, her songs and sets have earned her appearances at umpteen festivals, National Radio airplay, and support slots with such diverse acts as The Subways, Gravenhurst, James Yorkston, Selfish Cunt, King Creosote, Decoration, Malcolm Middleton and Holly Golightly. Once you’ve heard her you’ll never forget it, her songs stick in your soul and pulse in your brain like nothing else on earth. Rose Kemp will rock your World.
2006 will see Rose release two singles and an album on One Little Indian Records: her debut album Glance came out in 2003 on Park Records.

"It's not very often that we see a Cumbrian lass lying on the floor singing through a throat microphone. Enter, then, the beautifully odd world of Rose Kemp. An impressive array of guitar pedals provides an impressive arsenal of effects through which to showcase her unique, folk-inflected voice. The highlight emerges when Rose utilises tape delay to loop and intertwine her various vocal hooks into one glorious whole. Stunning stuff." - James Hannam, The Fly
“Dark and sinister yet alluring and beautiful at the same time, how this music manages to combine such pretty and hideous sides is a mystery to me.” - Dan Newman, www.joyzine.co.uk
“Fed through a kaleidoscope of infinite delay, her eerie lines of lament are looped and juxtaposed on the spot from one striking vocal range, and woven into a choral constellation.” Ali S, Sounds XP
“Rose Kemp begins proceedings, with what can only be described as a beautiful performance... those who’ve made the effort can feel very smug that they’ve got to see someone very special. If you haven’t heard of her, take PJ Harvey and give her even more gutsy depth, with a little more soul and you're kind of getting there.” - Polly Weeks, www.gigwise.com
