Artist description A bit tough to describe, but may have aspects of '60s pop and psychadelia, perhaps with twinges of that Phil Spector sound.

Music Style A wee bit psychadelic pop.

Artist History Licorice Roots was originally formed in 1991 as Raymond Listen by Edward Moyse (guitar,vocals) and Dave Milsom (drums). David Silverman was soon added on organ to provide a melodic base to their quirky yet catchy brand of psychadelic pop.Their first album, 'Licorice Root Orchestra' was released on Shimmy-Disc in 1993 to wonderous praise and adulation. Soon after, the band regrouped themselves and changed the name to Licorice Roots. Arthur Marks was added on bass and in 1997 the album 'Melodeon' was released on MoodFood Records. Presently Licorice Roots is working on new material and is open to offers from labels.

Group Members Edward Moyse, David Milsom, Arthur Marks.

Albums Licorice Root Orchestra (ShimmyDisc 1993), Melodeon (MoodFood 1997)

Press Reviews From CMJ, about 'Melodeon': "Expansion from a fixed point is rarely done this well, or to this degree of depth."
