MY TIGER MY TIMING (Indie - UK)

at the Restaurant


My Tiger My Timing are a five piece Indie Rock band from New Cross in south-east London formed in January 2008 by brother and sister Anna Vincent (vocals/synth) and James Vincent (vocals/bass/guitar), Jamie Harrison (vocals/bass/guitar) and Gary Drain (drums/vocals). The band were joined by Sebastian Underhill (synth/vocals, formerly of electropop band thecocknbullkid) in February 2009. Their music was described by NME.com as “tribal electro like a south London Gang Gang Dance” and by Clash as “alternative pop with a dark heart that’s bursting with desire”..

The band take their name from the title of a song by New York experimental disco musician Arthur Russell.

Their debut single This Is Not The Fire was produced by Andy Spence of the British electropop-New Rave band New Young Pony Club and released in April 2009 through DIY label Silver Music Machine. Their second single, I Am The Sound, was also produced by Spence and released as part of I Am The Sound EP through London's Pure Groove label.

The band's music has also been included on Kitsuné Maison Compilation 8, alongside artists like Delphic, Le Corps Mince de Françoise and Two Door Cinema Club, on Modular's Leave Them All Behind III compilation, on the Pure Groove 3 sampler and French label Sisterphunk's Sisters EP. They also contributed a cover of an Arthur Russell song, Arm Around You to A Tribute to Arthur Russell, a compilation released on the Electric Minds label.
