Loopy's new album is recorded and it is "Waiting for Naomi". That's the title.
Although Zip Records may be unaffiliated with this new one, we heartedly endorse all things "Loopy" and salivate at the thought of more great songs from this Danish band. See the video of their Zip Records hits single "Nowhere Near Alright" at www.loopy-cph.com.

Bio
The Copenhagen foursome trading under the name Loopy have released their debut album “Smile Back Home” in January 2005 in Denmark and March 8, 2005 in the United States. The single “Nowhere Near Alright”, produced by Thomas Troelsen (Junior Senior, etc) was a favorite with Danish national radio station P3. Such single was “heard around the world” and became the catalyst for an album deal with Zip Records for a U.S. release.

Loopy are as pop as you want to be, but they meld “alternative” touches into the mix and the band shows an utter disregard for pop conventions even as they worship at its melodic feet.
