Coming from the hills of North Mississippi and the Cats Purring Collective (featuring prolific artists like Dent May, Bass Drum of Death and Flight), Cole Furlow has been releasing material under the guise of Dead Gaze since 2009
Hauschka was interviewed by esteemed music critic Paul Morley for Sinfini Music.
Charade, the debut EP from His Clancyness, is released today on cassette and download.

Tal National premier their new single “Wongharey” on PopMatters. Already local legends in their homeland Niger, Tal National's first internationally-released album and FatCat debut - Kaani - will be out in September. The band craft fascinating, mesmerising African guitar music
Our latest demo comes from Hibou, the moniker of Peter Michel who formerly toured North America and Europe as the drummer of indie outfit Craft Spells. At only 19, he already has a year-long touring experience and two songs under his belt, one of which is the new demo track of the week.
Enjoy "Glow" on our demo site.
With an album release just around the corner, Dead Gaze is gearing up for a short US tour. The band will be heading out on the road with Dent May
The artists below are currently on tour around the world...
The solo project of Cats Purring member R Cole Furrow, Dead Gaze’s recent, self-titled debut for Palmist was both moderately unhinged and totally tune-stuffed; harking back brilliantly to the barely-evolved psych and post punk sounds of the Flying Nun label. On this mix Furrow put together exclusively for The Fly, he shows a crate-digger’s love for all things underground, taking in world music sounds (The Meditations‘ harmony-rich reggae, Super Mazembe‘s Kenyan soukus) eccentric figures both past (The Feelies, Tall Dwarfs’ Chris Knox) and present (Julian Lynch) as well as some incongruously smooth pop from Hall & Oatesand Steve Winwood. Drink it up! It’ll put hairs on your chest.
