We're extemely passionate about making true, heartfelt music, that we hope people can really connect with, if we don't feel it, we don't do it!  As a band we are very dedicated to keeping things moving forward and do not want to just sit around waiting for a label to come along and make it all possible for us, which of course would be lovely!  :-D

At present we are trying hard to produce our debut album.  At the moment it's a fully self-produced, self-financed project, so it might take a little while, as we're having to battle against all the fun and joy that comes from having to work for a living! :-(  In 2006 we self-produced and self-released a 6-track E.P "The Lock-Up Sessions Vol.1" on our own label Sweet Life Records.  The E.P is available to buy at our website store here or to download via i-tunes.

Essentially we feel that all we need, is to find people who really believe in us and what we do, and would like to try and help us open a few doors!

Lone Pine's Official Biography:

Following a very low key self-released 6-track EP at the start of 2006, awarded 8/10 by Whisperin' and Hollerin' who decribed it as "defiantly glorious roots flavoured rock 'n' roll", Cardiff 5-piece Lone Pine are currently recording tracks for our debut full-length with producer Charlie Francis (REM, Robyn Hitchcock, Minus 5 and Wilco). Victoria Williams (who has worked with Neil Young and Lou Reed amongst others) has already put down vocals on two songs being considered for the record, captured just before the Mark Olson and the Creekdippers shows Steve and I did earlier in the year.

Since their inception Lone Pine have traveled the width and breadth of the UK, playing two Green Man Festivals (alongside Bonnie Prince Billy, Joanna Newsom, Adem etc) and short tours with a host of Uncut and broadsheet favourites including American Music Club, Richmond Fontaine, The Radar Bros, The Redlands Palomino Co. and rockier bands on labels such as
Rough Trade, Secretly Canadian and Sub Pop.

"that resonant, Levon Helmish voice goes down like a cool swig of Southern Comfort. Country rock with balls."
(Charley Dunlap, Bath Chronicle)

"In the zone of excellence" Noel Gardner (Rocksound Magazine)

"Rootsy, country tinged rock 'n' roll in the manner of Wilco, The Jayhawks and the like, all beautifully executed too"
(Venue Magazine)

"Simply great songs that Mick and Keef would be proud of…Wales’ best kept secret for to long" (soundsnew.com)
