From Declarations of Exclusions

The Singleman Affair, under which moniker they pursue their more acoustic-psychedelic-folk inclinations.  Clever movie buffs of a certain age may earn valuableless Fool points by identifying the reference in that band name.  The Singleman Affair has a forthcoming album of its own, samples from which were posted earlier in the week by Craig Bonnell at songs:illinois.  Early Simon & Garfunkel appears to be a formative influence here, and there’s nothing wrong with that.

Glenn at Coolfer today reports the signing of The Singleman Affair to the Poptones label.  At the Poptones site, you can find a streaming Quicktime video for l’affaire Singleman’s “Is Madras Morning”—which draws on the Ravi Shankar-driven stars ‘n’ sitars side of 60s music—as well as a link to the band’s inevitable MySpace page.

From Coolfer
Alan McGee’s Poptones label signed new artist The Singleman Affair. The band describes its sound as “lush ‘60s psyche-folk” (which is very accurate) and counts Joanna Newsom as its MySpace friends.
