Lamb (Band)Lamb were originally a Mancunian duo comprising of Producer Andy Barlow and Singer-Songwriter Louise Rhodes, however this pairing subsequently expanded to include bassist Jon Thorne, Icelandic guitarist Oddur Mar Runnarson, and Danish drummer Nikolaj Bjerre. They released their first album, the self-titled Lamb in September 1996, and followed this up with another three albums over the next seven years, culminating in the release of a greatest hits album, Best Kept Secrets in June 2004. Lamb performed what was billed as their final live appearance at the Paradiso, Amsterdam in September 2004. This performance was filmed for a planned live DVD release. The band members have since been working on a variety of solo projects, but have not ruled out the return of Lamb at some point in the future. Although hailing from Manchester, UK, Lamb are more commonly associated with the Bristol-based Trip Hop sound that was popular during the nineties. Aside from Trip Hop, their musical style is a very distinctive mixture of Jazz, Dubs, Breaks and Drum & Bass, with a strong vocal element, a style has been dubbed "Organica" by one Australian critic. In most countries they did not achieve the popularity of that of their contemporary peers. Portugal was an exception, however, and the band achieved a degree of crossover success in the country, including one major number 1 hit with "Gabriel".
