“Blackhart Strangelove” is based around the husband and wife duo of Laura Wendling from the USA (vocals) and Mark Dixon, (multi-instrumentalist and songwriter) from Fremantle.
Originally started as a recording project in 2007 when, early that year after writing the best part of an album’s worth of material, he went into the studio and produced an EP entitled “Don’t Set Yourself On Fire”.
Although most of the instruments are played by Mark, some notable musicians also lent their considerable talents to these sessions, including Martin Casey (the Bad Seeds), Ben Franz (the Waifs), and Angus Diggs (Mia Dyson).
In 2008 the song “She Wasn’t Sorry” was licensed to the “Cue Fashion Winter ‘08 Campaign” and a video featuring Vogue covergirl Megan Collinson from New York was shot for broadcast in Australia.
Although the EP received some critical aclaim, Mark was never entirely happy with the finished product, and this year, after re-recording the vocals with Laura and remixing and remastering by Pete Grandison the CD is now ready for release.
Looking for a rhythm section led them to talented drummer and multi-instrumentalist Dave Capper, who has now joined the group.
Blackhart Strangelove are currently performing around Fremantle and Perth as a duo, and band, with Russell White on bass.

The band I thought of when I heard you folks was the Velvet Underground and when I looked at your influences on your Myspace page they are listed. Great alternative sound, mesmerizing! |
