Proto:1952
Started in the year of 2004, two bright faced young boys took to making some crazy music! Armed with their computers, guitars and handy beverages they set out on a musical journey across all genres to attempt to create some funky songs for all to enjoy!
Why this name?
Oh that's a long story but we like it.
Do you play live?
Of course we play live. We played a show at a basic Blues/Jazz night and we're hoping to do a lot more.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
I think the internet is a huge and complex thing and it allows literally anyone to do anything. So if we're gonna scrounge off the internet by letting you see our songs then that's fine. IT ROCKS!
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Hmmm, nahh we'll keep to the underground dude, nothing wrong with recording in a shed.
Band History:
Luke Highet - Lead Guitar, Rhythm Guitar, Keyboards, Drums and Co-Producer
Christian Sturgess - Bass, Acoustic Bass, Keyboards, Drums and Co-Producer
Owen Brunt - Vocals and Harmonica player. Oh and the all around funny guy!
We mainly use a drum machine for the rythm section, however guest drummers do appear!
