  Field Music - Sit Tight
Download   |   Stream
Field Music covered a lot of ground in 2006. The trio from Sunderland have performed in Berlin, in Milan with Belle and Sebastian and Barcelona, toured France with Architecture in Helsinki and the UK with their compadres Maximo Park and The Futureheads, the UK twice on their lonesome, including Reading and Leeds Festival appearances, and the US where they were one of the surprise hits of SXSW. They also found time to invent a dance craze (according to English tabloid newspaper The News of the World), etch one side of a 7" with a list of things you really shouldn't do but probably have, remix Maximo Park, release a cash-in-b-sides album which gave a brief and inaccurate history of a slew of pre-Field Music experiments. In addition the band also found time to record their second album proper.
