Sparky's Magic Piano are a London-based indie pop duo, comprised of Oli Bartlett and Marion Turnbull, whose earnest, sparkling indie pop tunes nod to acts like Mates of State, the Blow, and Bobby Baby.
The project derives its name from an episode of a 1947 Capitol Records audio story starring Bozo the Clown's sidekick, an imaginative young boy named Sparky. Sparky's Magic Piano's debut full-length, Feel the Beat and Do It Anyway!, was released on the band's homegrown label, MelodyFactory, in 2007. This release was followed by a single on Cloudberry Records, Like Falling in Lo*e, which came out the following year. The band had two more singles -- a web-released downloadable single, "Popcorn," and an evocatively titled mini-CD, The Escape from Aled Jones -- out via MelodyFactory before 2008 came to a close. ~ Margaret Reges
