Astronauts is the solo musical project of the UK songwriter, Dan Carney. He is signed to London-based imprint Lo Recordings.[1]

History

Carney initially conceived the project in 2013, following the end of his previous band Dark Captain, and while recuperating from a badly broken leg.[2] After the first Astronauts songs were uploaded to SoundCloud in November 2013,[3] a deal was signed with Lo Recordings.

The debut Astronauts single, "Skydive", was released in June 2014, receiving support from BBC Radio 6 Music's Tom Ravenscroft,[4] Gideon Coe,[5] Cerys Matthews,[6] and Steve Lamacq,[7] as well as BBC Radio Scotland's Roddy Hart,[8] and Huey Morgan on BBC Radio 2,[9] earning Carney comparisons with Elliott Smith,[10] Broken Bells, and The Shins,[11] and making the Hype Machine charts.[12] The video for the song was devised and directed by London-based Irish artist Michelle Deignan.[13]

The debut album, Hollow Ponds, named after an area of Epping Forest near where Carney lives, and was hospitalised following his leg fracture,[14] was released in July 2014.[15] The collection featured musical contributions from Firestations' Michael Cranny (who co-authored a number of tracks),[16] London alt-folk singer Jess Bryant[17] and cellist Nicole Robson (Bat For Lashes, Stats),[18] with Sputnik Music describing the sound as "often bleak and highly contemplative indie-folk".[19]

The second album 'End Codes' was released in May 2016.[20]

Miscellaneous

Carney appears on There Are No Goodbyes, the 2009 album from Robin Proper-Sheppard's Sophia, playing guitar and providing vocal harmonies on the song "Storm Clouds".[21] The album was released by the City Slang label.[22]

He also has a PhD in developmental psychology,[23] and has authored a number of research papers examining cognitive processing and memory in a number of developmental disorders.[24] Using developmental trajectories to examine verbal and visuospatial short-term memory development in children and adolescents with Williams and Down syndromes,[25] and executive function in Williams and Down syndromes.[26]
