Gothic

There are 2 artists under the same name: 1) The Cold was a popular New Orleans band, performing from 1979 to 1985. This was during the Punk Rock and New Wave craze and The Cold drew their share of fans from the genre. 2) A band from Frankfurt was founded in 1997 as a quartet, initially
featuring an unconventional interpretation of traditional new wave music 
from the early 80's.
 With the first Demo CD, today's five-member line-up joined forces and
their repertoire was completely replaced by their own songs.

The Snake Corps came together in 1984 following the break-up of Sad Lovers & Giants (SL&G) the previous year.
Aiming for a harder-edged sound, core members Tristan Garel-Funk and Nigel Pollard advertised in the Melody Maker for the necessary musicians. After many auditions they settled on Marc Lewis and Liam McGuinness on vocals and bass respectively. This original incarnation set about establishing its own sound - recording demos of songs later to appear on the band

Terry Garland is known internationally as a master slide and acoustic guitarist. The artist's impassioned songs, rare musical insight and depth make him one of the most innovative and praised contemporary blues and roots musicians. Terry's meticulous finger-picking and driving percussive foot-stomping unite with his vocal prowess to create an evocative, engaging transformation. Born in Johnson City, Tn., Terry's musical roots were pioneered by forefathers of the blues.

Siiiii were born in early 1983 when singer Paul, then only 19, moved from his native East Anglia to Sheffield purely to be in the band, joining guitarist Mark, and bassist Ange. Taking their name from William Burroughs' "The Soft Machine" they gigged extensively during the early to mid 1980's and possibly hold the record for the amount of times they were nearly signed to record labels. Siiiii disbanded in 1986 and the members went their separate ways. Mark went on to play with the Anti-Group and Paul became involved in The Niceville Tampa (now Niceville) and then DVO in South Wales.
