Music News - Sneaky Feelings - 'Send You' Deluxe Re-Issue Announced
27 February 2015 - 0 Comments
Dunedin's Sneaky
Feelings first featured on Flying Nun's 1981 Dunedin Double compilation, filled
with lush pop harmonies, those first tracks were then followed by their debut
full length - Send You two
years later.
Send You saw
the the band expand their songwriting and sonic ambition beyond their early
four track recordings. In comparison to some of their label mates the Sneaky Feelings exhaled
a lighter, Byrds-like, touch but still retained the distinctive feel of many on
the Flying Nun roster. With three band members (Matthew Bannister, David Pine
and Martin Durrant) each contributing engaging songs to the album, Send You remains
one of the great Flying Nun releases.
Now set to be re-issued, this new deluxe edition gives a further detailed look
at the band's early material, with the album expanded to include a remastered
version of Send
You, plus
songs from 1985's Be
My Friend 7”, Husband House EP
and bonus tracks from their 1990 session at Dunedin's Radio1, which featured
on an earlier expanded CD release.

"Over the years there has been a lot of talk about the so-called ‘Dunedin sound’. Dunedin’s Sneaky Feelings were a band whose ambitions and interests went much wider than any generic ‘sound’; they would even come to be regarded as something of an anomaly on Flying Nun, home to the Dunedin sound. And yet their first album seemed to epitomize that sound, whatever it was.
One of the first long-players released on the fledgling label, Send You was emblematic....it will jangle forever as one of New Zealand’s essential albums.’" - Extract from Nick Bollinger’s - ‘Send You’ liner notes
