About Nemo
Nemo are North London's
beloved electro rock quartet. Since their first live performances in the summer
of 2004, their fusion of electronics, punk dynamics and pop melodies has
been turning heads across London, Paris and Berlin. As experimental as
the Faint but as accessible as the Killers, this quintessentially English
four piece are already inspiring adoration on both sides of the pond.
Their near legendary and pioneering electro new wave club, 'The System'
has played host to such illustrious guests as Ricard Archer(Hard FI),
Graham Coxon, Robots In Disguise, White Rose Movement, IAMX and Chikinki.
The club has even found its way onto the continent via original NY new-wave
promoter 'Steve Maas' in Berlins Mudd Club.
As producers in their own right, they've recently completed
the recording of their debut album 'Post Human Love' at their own 'Deepsee'
studios in Dalston, working in the process with Jim Abbiss(Arctic Monkeys,Kasabian,Placebo),Charlie
Francis(REM) Joe Wilson(Sneaker Pimps,Client,Trash Money) and Emre Ramazanoglu
(producer of Mercury Prize nominated Lou Rhodes). Teaming up with guru
and a+r legend Andy Ross (Ex-Food Records), the band have secured a diverse
array of fans. Singer James has appeared in several episodes
of the Mighty Boosh series 1 and 2, making cameos both on screen and in
the live show, electro-singer songwriter Imogen Heap is a friend and fan,
as is Nighty Night's writer and star, Julia Davis.
Nemo's many live performances have included supports with
Imogen Heap and The Sneaker Pimps (singer James Cook also toured and played
with Chris Corner on his new project IAMX), We Are Scientists, VHS or
Beta, The Paddingtons and Lorraine. In July this year Nemo received the
jury prize for best new band at 40th Montreux Jazz Festival and will play on the main stage in July 2007. They have
also headlined Alan McGee's club night 'Death Disco' and Berlins legendary
White Trash. Their debut single, 'Lifespan' (played on Radio 1's Zane Lowe show) released on their own 'Deepseemusic'
label is a unique fusion of gritty electro, trashy punk and epic screaming
vocals. Their second single, 'Car Crash Eyes' released on their
own 'Deepseemusic' label in April 2007 is set to follow in the footsteps
of 'Lifespan'. 70s punk
legend Tom Robinson is also a fan, already having made 'Car Crash Eyes'
a featured song on his BBC 6 music show. The song, an ode to the darkly
obsessive world of the e-groupie is a blast of epic electro rock darkness
mixed with a pure pop chorus.
