Polaroid Kiss works with Martin Sköld and Perry Bamonte Jan 11, 2012 | By: Johan Carlsson (Stockholm, Sweden)
As I understand it, Stockholm based Polaroid Kiss is basically a one man project, but Brandun Reed has drafted some interesting people to work with him. He's collaborated with Ian Pickering from Sneaker Pimps, Martin Sköld from Kent, Perry Bamonte from The Cure and Steve Hewitt from Placebo. Probably more! The debut album "Weakness of the Beautiful Souls" is mixed by Jon Fryer who has worked with Nine Inch Nails and Depeche Mode.
