London trio Miraculous Mule deliver a slick and seemingly effortless, hard-blues driven brand of rock 'n' roll, but it's knife-edge stuff. The slick and effortless part comes from the fact that these boys have been cutting their teeth and earning their stripes over the years with a devout immersion in gothic American roots music, before that particular bandwagon arrived in
town again, and again after it left.

Michael J Sheehy has fronted 90s cult band Dream City Film Club and recorded five solo records as well as fronting the short lived Saint Silas Intercession with his brother Patrick McCarthy at his side for the most part. Witnesses to these previous outings and their current incarnation will know that the soul and confrontation they project is real. They can play and they can sing. The edge that they skirt comes in part from their school of hard knocks north London council-estate, Irish Catholic upbringing. They have known drummer Ian Burns since childhood and all grew up on Saint Silas council estate on Queens Cresent in Kentish Town. For the lifelong friends, music provided a much needed escape from the culture of drugs and violence that had depressed the area.

Their blues and gospel driven rock 'n' roll sound now incorporates new elements of psychedelic soul and stoner/space rock.

"Deep atmospheric grooves meet staggering heaviness" MOJO
"Pure essence of Rock 'n' Roll!" Louder Than War
"Lashing voodoo grooves to a delta moan, sounds like it was concocted by some postmodern chain gang" Classic Rock

Lancy & Nee is the live debut of a new project from Tina and Simon Wild from Oh! Gunquit. What is it? Well, there might be clue in the name Lancy & Nee. Yep, it's their tribute to Nancy Sinatra & Lee Hazelwood!
