Dalmaine a band approaching the perfect mix of slow burning anthems and off kilter guitars topped off with haunting vocal melodies that nestle in your brain.
By placing the instruments in their best possible space it is possible to create mood and to stir the emotion. You hear the songs but - more importantly - you feel the songs.
Fans of expressive, intelligent, experimental melodic music will not be disappointed

Do you play live?
Play live as much as we can or until people get sick of us.
Mainly Bristol in the UK though we are tentatively spreading our wings, building up confidence...

How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
I certainly listen to a lot more music!
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Never even considered the prospect to be honest but only because it isn't a reality at the moment. Lets just say we'll cross that bridge when we get to it.
Band History:
Dan Monks – Vocals/ Guitar
Calvin Talbot – Guitars/ Synths
Steve Bell – Bass/ Vocals
Martin Maidment - Drums/ Vocals
The musical scope of the past is varied (Eighth Day, Radon Daughters, Copter) more than reflected in the songs. At once haunting but pretty. Strangely threatening yet comforting.
