The Painted Word
About The Painted Word
Basically one man, Alan McCusker-Thompson from Glasgow. They released one album in the 80s and one in the 90s, having first recorded for U2's Mother Records. They made a sort of elegant chamber pop with new wave touches, not dissimilar to bands like The Pale Fountains or The Dream Academy.
