Sonver

London-based group SonVer were formed in November 2003 by cellist Joanna Quail and guitarist Ben McLees. The duo recorded SonVer's eponymous début during the first half of 2005, which would be released on Disconnected Music in the November of that year. SonVer's live shows at the time incorporated visuals by Simon Bryant, the largely monochrome, slow-motion films perfectly complementing SonVer's evocative music. During 2006, SonVer's presence on the live scene grew.
