Episode 21: Laura-Mary Carter, Blood Red Shoes

The James McMahon Music Podcast

I’ve long considered Brighton duo Blood Red Shoes to be one of the most unrated and underappreciated bands in British indie. Formed waaaay back in 2004 by singer/guitarist Laura-Mary Carter and drummer Steven Ansell, their frenetic indie rock has only become more interesting over time. I have some good news – there’s a new Blood Red Shoes album coming imminently. It sounds like Nine Inch Nails apparently. Blimey! And some more good news; Laura’s debut solo release, the sun fried Americana of ‘Town Called Nothing’ was released just last week, in advance of the album proper to follow on December 3rd. I was obviously going to give her a call and have a chat about all of this.
