"We don't play pop music, we don't write music for art's sake, we don't represent any movements, we're not hip, we're not cutting edge, we don't dress to be cool. We manage ourselves, we write our own songs, we do our own recordings, we shoot our own videos, we design our own covers, we run our own website. We're not generally negative people. Oh yes, and we're not lefthanded." Fiercely independent, mostly-Irish but currently London-based, I Am Not Lefthanded are known for their homemade, quirky videos as much as their lyrical, evocative music. Described as sounding like 'Natalie Merchant fronting Death Cab for Cutie' and 'Ireland's answer to Rilo Kiley', they've toured around the UK and Ireland alone and with Duke Special, The Rumble Strips and The Answering Machine. In 2008, they released their debut mini-album, Yes Means No, on fast-rising UK indie Letterbox Records. Receiving airplay on London, Irish and Scottish Radio, as well the lead track Long Goodbyes, featuring on the soundtrack for 'Cruelty'. They're currently working on their follow-up EP, Time To Leave, due out early 2010. I Am Not Lefthanded are: Kathryn - Vocals/Guitar/Piano Daniel - Vocals/Bass Benji - Drums ------- "A song to hold to yourself, to sing to the north-east wind until the dust is out of your eyes."
