“Put this song on repeat now: “(Out Of) The Neighborhood” is the debut single by Belle Ghoul, a new project featuring Christopher Tait of Electric Six & Jesse Paris Smith (daughter of Patti & Fred “Sonic” Smith) out on Five Three Dial Tone Records. This jam’s got some very soulful swagger. It opens with a Motown-esque drum fill that kicks the song in to dance floor 60′s pop ecstasy; like The Jam / Style Council sifted through The Funk Brothers. Tasty horns, a driving beat, a classic melody, the right keyboard riffs and some sweet boy/girl vocals = recipe for happiness.” – Some Velvet Blog

“Although the idea of a collaborative project had been on the horizon for quite some time, it was not until earlier this summer when Electric Six’s synth master Christopher Tait took a break from touring, called upon his dear friend-New York City based songwriter Jesse Paris Smith, and began working on a few recordings with producer (and E6 guitarist) Zach Shipps. The duo’s transcontinental project, coined Belle Ghoul, resulted in a cheerful, fuzz-pop, brass-fueled 7” inch entitled The Neighborhood, reminiscent of the playful harmonies of Belle and Sebastian layered over the up-beat melodies of Elvis Costello.” – Green Light Go Publicity
