Make it your system
Lazarus is an alternative rock outfit with grunge overtones currently based in Cape Town. Lazarus is a four piece. Their website can be found at http://www.lazarusland.com
Why this name?
Niels, the leadsinger, came up with the name. This was the name that he initially wanted to give his future son and the name was also given to a plastic skeletton hanging on his rearview mirror. We then though a bit more about the concepts related to the name and agreed that the name was suitable for our ambitions.
Do you play live?
We regularly play live in Cape Town at the moment and it is something that the band thoroughly enjoys doing. The crowd response has been great so far.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Music is instantly available to people around the globe which presents a challenging yet enormous opportunity for new bands.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
yes

Lazarus was established in November 2001 originally as a project which the members then decided to take further in June 2002 due the promising musical potential they saw. Gigging started in November 2002 and now the band has launched its own website at http://www.lazarusland.com
