Napoleon IIIrd

Napoleon IIIrd is a highly original musician from Leeds.

He makes a unique kind of leftfield pop from piles of antique organs and car-boot keyboards, gentle strummed chords and driving glitched beats. His live show also features a reel-to-reel tape player, sometimes through surround-sound speakers, and a strobing acoustic guitar. Following his first national tour with Applicants, Evenings, Bishi and The Open Mouths in late 2005, he has quickly gained a mighty live reputation. He has since played all sorts of support slots with bands such as Hot Chip, Clor, The Mystery Jets, Forward, Russia! and The Research.

Napoleon has released 2 ltd. edition EPs, the first on Leeds label Dance To The Radio, the second with London-based indie Brainlove Records. His brilliant Forward, Russia! remixes have gained him extensive radio play and an army of new admirers. His debut album, "In Debt To:", is available from iTunes or eMusic now, and on CD soon.
