Folk Bands and Artists
The Corner Laughers
Heavenly vocals, jangly guitars, delicate ukes, a thunderous rhythm section and crystalline production.
“Sometimes a band come along that are pretty damn hard not to be smitten by, like looking into the eyes of a tiny kitten, you´d have to be made of stone not to feel something. The Corner Laughers are one of those bands … Prepare to fall in love.” -- A Musical Priority
The band is led by singer/ukulele player Karla Kane, with bassist Khoi Huynh, drummer Charlie Crabtree, and guitarist KC Bowman. Their sound defies pigeonholes but has been compared to that of Kirsty MacColl, XTC and, despite some sunshine-pop tendencies, the “rainy melancholia” of Camera Obscura (Magnet Magazine).
Front and center are heavenly vocals, jangly guitars, delicate ukes, and a thunderous rhythm section.
Called a “nigh-on-perfect fusion of bubblegum-sweet tunefulness and clever, subtly barbed lyrics” (Icon Magazine) and “simply wonderful” (PopMatters), The Corner Laughers have received international radio airplay and reviews; had multiple songs in national retail campaigns; toured the UK/Europe and performed both locally and abroad with artists including Mike Viola, Three Minute Tease (Anton Barbeau, with Morris Windsor and Andy Metcalfe of The Soft Boys), Adam Schlesinger (Fountains of Wayne), Martin Newell, Sophie Madeleine, Tristen, and The Moore Brothers.
