Abacinate
The band consists of two friends who have been beating-up upright pianos since school. Of late, weve been recording stuff that has formed from jam sessions etc. We both spend lots of time writing/playing different types of music. Were now trying to collect this music together and get it recorded!
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
In 1970 the band escaped a nasty karma cycle that had dominated the last few
thousand years (approx.).
After a few pints in Jul 2004, some chords and expletives landed on a page
these formed a song. The song formed a band.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Yep, have played until a trail of blood appeared on the keys.
