Smith & Burrows is a collaboration between Tom Smith from Editors and Andy Burrows from I Am Arrows / We Are Scientists / Razorlight. Their album, Funny Looking Angels was released on November 28th 2011.
What started as two friends popping into each other’s houses and then home studios, putting down an idea here and a melody there, developed into a set of songs with a Christmas theme, then a theoretical album, then a real album with a release date and a title. ‘Funny Looking Angels’ includes original songs from both Tom and Andy but also features a selection of covers. The eclectic choice includes Yazoo’s ‘Only You’, Black’s ‘Wonderful Life’ and a closing track which features guest vocal from rising star Agnes Obel, in a duet with Tom singing a sumptuous version of ‘The Christmas Song’.
