Childish Tones (Twitter), band which plays rock'n'roll using only toy instruments, has a new single being released on 7"! This follows the album "God Bless The Girls" which featured singer Beni Usakura. This time the songs are sung by the band's own members: "Country Girl" (a cover of Primal Scream) by KA-NO-KO L.K <a.k.a Lovely K>, and "Rock'n'Roll Radio On" (a new original song) by leader Nemoto De Chôbeaullet. "Rock'n'Roll Radio On" does homage to Pianosaurus, Chubby Checker and The Modern Lovers.
Check out audio samples at Jet Set, and below a live performance of "Country Girl" from last year.
Childish Tones feat. Beni Usakura recently performed a studio live of 4 songs that can be viewed on YouTube, in consolation of a postponed show.
L.K has announced that she will be leaving the group after the release party for this single, to be held on March 7 at Shimokitazawa Live Haus (show details).
