Nizlopi

Nizlopi were a British two man band from Leamington Spa, UK with Luke Concannon (vocals, guitar, bodhran) and John Parker (double bass, beatbox, guitar, backing vocals). They were initially friends who've been writing and playing music together since their early teens. They take their band name from a Hungarian girl that Luke had a crush on at school. Nizlopi gigged relentlessly since the start of the 21st century.

Its dance music, Jim, but not as we know it Drawing upon a peculiarly twisted English humour (where The Comic Strip meets League of Gentlemen) this six-piece throw in some dynamite horn, guitar and drum action and invariably you end with something very naughty, but very nice.

Melancholy Moose Society

"we were eating pop tarts in a small log cabin in L.A when suddenly an earth quake struck and we became stranded and trapped in the log cabin for months..........in that time we formed a band and made our instruments from icecream tubs, elastic bands, empty pringle tubs and bottles of dr.pepper..... Thankfully we survived by drinking our own urine and catching clumsy moles......now free and back in the U.K we play beautiful tunes to over come the stressful time in L.A.................so far we have supported lots of great talent.
