The Parsonage - This Ain't No Lovey Dovey

Named in honour of the Grievous Angel, Mr Gram Parsons, The Parsonage is a group of around
50 Glasgow based singers which was formed at the beginning of 2006 by musician Janis F.
Murray. She set out to fill a void within the local music community, gathering a host of like
minded musical speculators, including artists, teachers, musicians, scientists, carers,
hairdressers and writers, all of whom felt compelled to sing. They are a non-religious, mixed sex,
varied of age, determinedly independent and self defining organic group. Inspiration comes
from the raw, storytelling simplicity of the folk, country and blues traditions, reinterpreted for a
21st Century audience. Having sung with Rod Stewart and Echo and The Bunnymen's
(seriously…), they should be off to a good start with this EP, featuring covers of Joy Division,
Jefferson Airplace and The Go-Go’s. Limited edition on Optimo’s own wonderful Oscarr
