Pre-Production 2007

Here are some (very bad) photos of our pre-production sessions for our debut "A Signal Path" in 2007. The practice space has since turned into Kill City Blues, which is a significant improvement from the smelliness in these photos.

You see, when a band loves another band… a beautiful thing happens

This is our and my first entry of our blog, we’ll be posting some behind the scenes news, info, gossip, flattery, insults and a large collection of big words to impress you. See what challenges we face, and learn of our achievements. Like reality television without having to watch us eat live cockroaches or making a number two in one of our backyard flower patches. Each member will be posting their own news, posting links to things we find interesting or funny. Follow this blog – click “follow blog” at the top of the page or RSS Feed it – and be the first know of our skullduggery. Check out our other online activities on other platforms on the web on the right.

We were very happy to play two awesome shows with one of our favourite bands this week, Isochronous. We played a Saturday at Zula Sound Bar and then the following Friday we played Mercury Live. They delivered a whirlwind of their jazzy dream pop even though Richard Brokensha (lead singer and guitarist) was taken with “the black lung” - this nasty strain of flu floating around – at the Mercury show. Mother Nature gave me the black lung a week ago too: flu, an ear infection and a big cup of bronchitis. So anyone who thought I seemed a bit “out of it” at Zula should know that Myprodol played a big part in my demeanour that night after having been bedridden for five days straight.

On the Friday at Mercury we started a little filming project of ours – more on that later. So you’ll soon see some footage of our performance, and we’ll let you know as soon as it’s ready. Omega Bronkhorst from Madbrew Productions and Nico Roos were kind enough to skilfully guide the lenses.

Some of you have asked us where you can get hold of our album – we launched it on the 27th of March at Mercury Live. Unfortunately at the moment it’s only available in Cape Town at Hi Five in Kloof Street. But distribution should be resolved shortly and I’ll let you know when and where you can get your hands on it.
