Stairs To Korea is Will Vaughan, a frighteningly talented half-Icelandic multi-instrumentalist who crafts skewed pop music using an array of effects, synthesisers and a dinky white guitar. Sugar-coated harmonies meet bended brass lines and intricate guitar motifs in his unique paens to growing up, going out and getting lost in the 21st century.

After spells ranging from being a teenage drummer in a touring hardcore band to turning up in countless London groups playing a trumpet, organ, drums or kronenberg can, to supporting the likes of The Magic Numbers and Noisettes and gracing the main stage of The Secret Garden Party, Will has spent 2009 gaining considerable acclaim in a short time for Stairs To Korea, bringing his one-man incarnation to the London circuit.

LIVE September 2009 dates:

18/09 BRAINLOVE CLUB @ The George Tavern w/ Internet Forever
25/09 CLUB NME @ Koko, BRNLV Room w/ Curly Hair
29/09 WHITE HEAT @ Madame JoJo's w/ Curly Hair, Kid Carpet

PRESS:

"Over three glorious minutes Boy Bear It In Mind wrestles with more melodies and ideas than most bands do across a whole album. This is how pop should be." - Sounds XP

"The chorus evolves into a million-part harmony that ascends like a helium balloon gone AWOL into the stratosphere... an enjoyable re-twisting of traditional ideas." - Artrocker

"Equipped with a tender voice and pure talent in creating so many sounds with only one pair of hands, this man is the latest in our eternal hunt for shonky heartfelt interesting pop music." - Muso's Guide

"Stairs To Korea and their 'Boy Bear It In Mind' sound like they could've been signed to Postcard Records and would invariably make Stuart Maconie dribble man-goo down his slacks if he heard it." - Electric Roulette
