Though they describe their partnership as "Two musical rebels handcuffed together through thick and thin," The Handcuffs sound nothing like captives. Their upcoming third album, Waiting for the Robot, out September 6, shows what chemistry, synchronicity and a shared passion for perfection can do. With Waiting for the Robot, Chloe F. Orwell and Brad Elvis, the core of the Chicago alternative, rock/pop, glam outfit, launch thirteen blazing, sexy, and hooky songs ready to explode out of speakers and get lodged into the brains of appreciative listeners. "I think that the good chemistry translates into a passion for our craft, a good work ethic and a positive energy, "says front-woman Orwell, "Plus, surrounding ourselves with very skilled and creative people who have added their talents to the production - and then I think all that translates into something that feels really good to the listener." The Handcuffs sound has been variously described, from "T-Rex and the Ting Tings straddling Goldfrapp" to "Queens of the Stone Age and Blondie on a road trip with Franz Ferdinand," but either way, you get fresh yet timeless, edgy yet accessible, skillfully crafted yet easily memorable songs that you can't help but dance to. Waiting for the Robot, engineered and co-produced by Mike Hagler (Wilco, The Mekons, OK Go, The New Pornographers) Prolific writers and producers, The Handcuffs have officially released two albums, recorded with Mike Hagler at Kingsize Sound Laboratories in Chicago. Songs from the debut CD Model for a Revolution and their follow-up Electroluv have been placed in numerous feature films and television shows on the CW, MTV, VH1, A&E, E!, Showtime, PBS, FUSE, Fuel, ABC and NBC. The Handcuffs are also featured on the soundtrack of the Sundance and SXSW award winning documentary The Education of Shelby Knox by New York production house and champions of free thinking Incite Pictures. # # # A publicity company with the highest level of passion, honesty, and integrity, while simultaneously successfully launching the careers of independent musicians.
