Cherbourg

Cherbourg is the side project of London-based singer-songwriter Andrew Davie. The band continues Davie's interest in folk music and Americana. Davie plays fiddle and guitar, creating a varied sonic palette. The use of fiddle in particular brings an ominous element into Cherbourg's music, as it is often run through effects and distortion. Davie's songwriting consists of oblique lyrics, using a lot of simile and metaphor to relay his emotions. Cherboug's 2009 EP is titled Last Chapter of Dreaming.
