Read a profile of this Leeds-based band.

MORE INFO: "Emerging from a vibrant music scene in Leeds, Beautiful Feet have just released their second single on 5-1 Records. "Suddenly"/"I See" is a double A-side release available for download only.  Combining edgy guitars with tuneful synths, Beautiful Feet make 'songs to fall in love to and with'."

"The band's first single, "Headstrong" reached the ears of many far and wide during their 2004 tour. Consequently it was taken on by the internationally acclaimed film producer Owen Carey Jones, to be used at the 2005 Cannes Film Festival. They trade in a studied wistfulness, which is likened to 'one part Delgados, one part jangly pop, one part Damien Rice, and seven parts pristine originality'.

"Beautiful Feet are about to burst back into the music scene with their latest material, after hiding themselves away for a few months of intense song writing. Songs about love, loss, city streets. Travelling around the UK the Feet are set to hit Manchester, London, Bradford, Leeds, Hull to name a few, with the 2005 Suddenly Tour.

"The aims of the band have always been high. James comments that he can see in the band the desire to carry on producing innovative music, pushing the boundaries of their instruments, and creativity."
