DESCRIPTION

Martin Carr was the main songwriter of The Boo Radleys. He was the force behind their position as stars of Alan McGee's Creation Records, their chart hits and NME front covers. Tapetes roster is large and varied: lots of local bands, but also some from the US, Scandinavia and Austria, plus, in Lloyd Cole and Bill Pritchard, a couple of hugely accomplished UK artists with deep history and maverick tendencies. Martin Carr fits that bill perfectly: a songwriter whose work is pop but not necessarily populist, and whose trajectory reveals an ambivalent relationship with conventional sensibilities. Indeed, its an issue he grapples with on one of The Breaks keynote songs: "Here I am swimming in the mainstream/I tell my friends I subvert it from within. I tell myself Im happy as I am."
