Blue Vamp are an experimental rock duo, not that we only use two instruments, it's just that there're only two of us writing the material. When we play live this winter, we will have another muscian(s) backing us up.

Why this name?
hmmm...well, I came across "vamp" from reading a music magazine describing "while the rhythm vamps over the such-and-such chord," and I think "Blue" describes our sound as well as any color, a dark steel blue. Then there's the reference to the "blue" note, although we don't play the blues I think we express similar emotions, so we vamp over the blue. Now I'm just babbling.
Do you play live?
Not yet, though both of us have performed live with other bands.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Putting access to mass media into the hands of the mob itself. It's great.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
I dunno. I doubt it.
Band History:
The story of evolution plays itself out once again.
Your influences?
I'm a big fan of Rasputina, NIN, KMFDM, Switchblade Symphony, Billie Holiday, Bessie Smith, etc. My cohort probably agrees with me, but she'd definitely add bjork, too.
Favorite spot?
New Orleans
Equipment used:
PC, Mac, Cool Edit, various drum machines, your standard guitars and amps.
Anything else...?
save the kittens.
