"Brilliantly eccentric, expertly-blended pot-pourri of styles" - The Scotsman "Stonkingly good." - The Fly "These guys are really cool. I dig them." - Liam Howlett, The Prodigy. "...Edinburgh's The Banana Sessions arouse our senses with their gypsy-pop stylings… wild rambunctiousness ensues and the crowd demand an encore." – The Big Issue "folksy and infectious" - Forth One The Banana Sessions are a Scottish duo, each with their own musical style and wild imagination. The band formed in 2007 and soon became known for their unique style of pop music with heavy folk and jazz influences. And in the six years that they've been together, they’ve played blazing live shows across the UK; recorded two EPs - the Yellow EP and the Green EP; and most recently, released their debut album, Mixtape. The Yellow and Green EPs were both recorded live over a few days, in an attempt to catch the band's energy at its best, but Mixtape sees The Banana Sessions explore a much more intricate and mature sound. The album features a selection of Scotland’s musical finest, including Martin Green & Aidan O’Rourke (Lau); Lindsey Black & Heather McLeod (The Bevvy Sisters) and Ross Ainslie (Treacherous Orchestra/Salsa Celtica); and was produced and engineered by Garry Boyle (The Depot), mastered by Stuart Hamilton (Castlesound Studios) and with concept production by Dave Hook (Stanley Odd). The Banana Sessions’ reputable shows have gained them recognition across the UK but they’ve also managed to make an impression worldwide with their famous 'Prodigy Medley', which has reached over 300,000 hits (and counting) on YouTube and was posted by The Prodigy themselves on their own website.
