The Research
The Research - the dreamy vehicle that effortlessly rolls with the heavy songs of Yorkshire’s famed rocky rider and beguiling bad boy Russell (EL DISASTRO), the irritable glamour rebel Georgia Lashbrook, and, the schematic for every rolling stone you ever thought you knew, Sarah Williams - formed in 2003. The Wakefield trio released their debut album, 'Breaking Up', through EMI in 2006 to a flurry of great reviews including 4/5 stars in Mojo. Support slots with the likes of Maximo Park, Mystery Jets and The Cribs followed and the band began to record the follow up record.
In 2007 The Research returned to Wakefield to re-record second album 'The Old Terminal' with their old faithful compatriot, Jamie Lockhart. Due to the limitations of the studio, Jamie and The Research spent the best part of the winter making the recordings sound as hi-fi as possible, whilst retaining each fumble and every humbling accident. These recordings truly re-summoned the old innards, all the guts and heart, of the irreparably deluded, commerce-addled am-pop group.
