Elizabeth Harper and the Matinee are a patch of green, Anglophilic moss thriving in the shade of the monolith that is Brooklyn's music scene — overgrown as it is with FIXED ravers, Studio B shakedowns, and over-blogged indie acts. With Harper rightfully compared to a female version of the beloved Mozzer, it's no wonder she was first signed overseas by London's Angular Records. Impeccable in both presentation (her demo's wax-paper packaging was covered in black-ink calligraphy) and performance, her songs recall Orange Juice, Aztec Camera, and New Order at their most tasteful.
