Turin Brakes ready third single from debut LP
17 July 2001

At the end of the month, south London folk pop balladeers Turin Brakes (Olly Knights and Gale Paridjanian) release the third single from their much hyped debut album The Optimist LP. The track Mind Over Money will appear on an enhanced CD along with the video, available 30 July on Source Records for the UK.
    The new single follows Underdog and The Door, released over the past few months as the UK’s press and public have fallen over each other with hyperbole for the band—but there’s something behind it. If you are a fan of Nick Drake or Jeff Buckley, or in this decade Coldplay or Radiohead, and you haven’t heard Turin Brakes we suggest checking them out.
    TB’s debut album came out on Source Records for the UK in March and on Astralwerks for the US in early May. The US version features the video for Underdog.
