“Some seriously sophisticated songwriting & playing”- The Guardian

"Combining the best in retro 80s synth textures, driving upbeat rhythms and pure pop melodies, 405 favourites Look, Stranger! have returned with another slick synth-pop gem. Making the most of Tim Sheinman's distinctive falsetto voice, Ithaca is as fun as it is infectious." - The 405 

Look, Stranger! are a vision of the future from the past. School science videos and long-lost editions of Tomorrow’s World’ provide the basis of the alternative 2012 inhabited by the band. Their songs cleverly stride the futuristic, the retro and the deeply familiar and it’s a unique approach to making music, clearly audible on their critically acclaimed debut EP ‘If You’re Listening’ last year and their follow up EP ‘One For The King’ released earlier this year. The beautiful ‘Ithaca’, produced by Tom McFall (Bloc Party, REM)  is the bands most anticipated release to date.

Comparisons in the mainstream music press have ranged wildly from Wild Beasts through to Fleetwood Mac, which perhaps alludes to the band’s biggest strength; their individuality and inimitable ‘kookiness’.  Alongside great reviews in the music press, radio support includes that of Gary Crowley (XFM), Frank Skinner (Absolute) Amy Lamé (BBC London), and Tom Robinson (BBC6 Music) who recently placed the band on his 6 Music Mixtape.

The boys have also found time to tour the UK (twice!), sign a large publishing deal, set up their own club-night at 93 Feet East (“The best club night in the UK” said The Times in Germany!) and befriend Michael Winner via Twitter. Plus they sport the best shirts in the music business. Fact.
