macaca mulatta capsula+the meligrove band+palace fires MACACA MULATTA rapidly formed several months after Chris Chinchilla left infamous Indie-stars, Art Brut and London Punks, Rhesus, imploded. Initially cobbled together to support The Rakes at a secret gig, the band have been speedily developing and playing dates all o ver the UK and further afield including New York City. Drawing together a wide variety of influences, Its still a raw sound, taking shape with a mixture of racous calls to arms and slower, dark, brooding tracks all within the confines of a three piece. Their first demos were recorded half in a dark, dank and dreary old distillery in Deptford with electricity borrowed from the car wash opposite, and half in a front room in Brixton, engineered and produced by the band and the infamous Les Fruitbat Carter of 90s superstars Carter USM. Toronto's MELIGROVE BAND was formed by Jason Nunes, Darcy Rego and Michael Small in high school in 1997. Andrew Scott joined in late 2002 when his previous band, Femme Fatale, gave way to Death From Above 1979. After two critically-acclaimed indie albums, in 2005 the Meligrove Band became the first Canadian group to sign a worldwide deal with V2 Records. Capsula: Only chance to catch them in the UK on their European tour. After releasing three albums in Argentina, they published CAPSULA in Spain by DDT from Bilbao, city where Capsula are living since 2002. Their songs were played in radios of Germany, UK, and Spain while got Best Invited Band in the International Villa de Bilbao 2004, where acts as The Movement, Jomi Massage, The Low Frequency in Stereo & Manta Ray won other years. They also published 4 CD singles (ShhShout, From the Sun, Rock in & No home) and made TV & radio showcases. Live animals as they are, Capsula prepares new material while touring all Spain. Included gigs with the Scottish duo Motormark, made radio special transmissions & played rock festivals in Euskadi & Ireland. |
