Sinister: Arab Strap / some questions for the faq

[Keith Watson]

>ooh...have B&S done stuff with any other bands do you know???

Chris does play with V-Twin, with his brother Kevin - oddly enough, recently in the press Chris claimed to have never heard Tindersticks. Myself, and some friends, including Chris's brother went down to London 3/4 years ago to the NME quiz final, Kevin introduced me to Tindersticks there so you might have thought.

	The trumpeter (Mick Cooke) plays guitar in Hardbody with his brother Alasdair, Louise, Toby and Ronan, a kind of Trip hop cum James Bond theme style band. They were signed to Epic until Epic took it upon themselves to drop everyone except Louise. Their album, as it stands, with Mick playing Guitar will be released some time next year... incidentally, they recorded it in New Orleans at the same time as that large ship crashed into a shopping centre. They have two singles out on Epic currently (it's on the Haiku sublabel - same as Finley Quaye)

Don't think V-Twin have actually put anything out yet. I'll find out if I bump into Kevin round the town. V-Twin play reasonably frequently around Glasgow/Edinburgh, I didn't make it to the Cas Rock show last week unfortunately as I was ill and am as a result yet to in fact see them myself. I'll remedy this soon. Friends tell me they rock - like the Faces perhaps.


Cheers,
	Keith
