LP IS LIMITED TO 500 copies on gold vinyl. Subtle harmonies and avant-garde theatrics are setting the Scottish duo apart. The Line of Best Fit // BDY_PRTS (make) theatrical, slightly avant-garde electro-pop with simple yet effective harmonies. D.I.Y // BDY_PRTS write great songs. Like, really great songs. CMU Daily // Sheer, effortless pop music. Clash // BDY_PRTS are a band hailing from Glasgow, Scotland comprising of two songwriters Chicago-raised Jill OSullivan (of cult band Sparrow And The Workshop) and Jenny Reeve (of Strike The Colours and frequent Malcolm Middleton collaborator) – alongside drummer/producer Jonny Scott (The Kills, Chvrches and Marnie). Describing themselves as electro future-pop on record their music is a melody-driven, 80s-tinged indie-electro-pop fusion. Live BDY_PRTS sound is coupled with a unique and striking visual identity, aided by of the otherworldly and genre-defying costumes designed with visual artists Urara Tsuchiya and Lesley Anne Hepburn. On stage Jill and Jennys intertwining costumed limbs offer a visual feast whilst their vocals, melodies and full band set-up (with guitar and drums) one for the ear, creating a show full of sonic and theatrical flair. BDY_PRTS have released three singles, most recently Rooftops (August 2017) which premiered on The Line of Best Fit, preceded by IDLU and Cold Shoulder (released in 2014/15 respectively). The latter two premiered on Clash and New Yorks Neon Gold blog, with plays by DJs Vic Galloway (BBC Radio Scotland) and Steve Lamacq (BBC Radio 6 Music).
