 Rising
Phoenix-like from the ashes of sundry bands, MASHTUN GRACE are the
best men at the wedding of classic and contemporary rock music. They
were also invited to the wedding of jazz and funk, but decided not to
show up.
If you broke into the respective
homes of any of the members of MASHTUN GRACE you may well find them
listening to the likes of Nirvana, The Black Crowes, Ween, and the
occasional early sixteenth century madrigal. You would then be chased
from the premises.
Live, the band
appear in the tried and tested line up of guitars, drums and Hammond
organ, which well suits their hard rocking styling. However, they have
chosen to eschew the traditional song writing approach for an entirely
error free automated system. To this end the band devised and built a
complex and mysterious software package, which they codenamed Mozart
3.2 (pat. applied for), which supplies them with all their material.
Unfortunately,
much of the band’s original material had to be scrapped when the
earlier Mozart 2.1 malfunctioned and produced a song that was so
perfect in every way that had it been released it would have negated
the need for the writing of any more music. Ever. By anyone.
Realising the
implications that this ‘master song’ had for the music industry, and
society itself, MASHTUN GRACE heroically destroyed the programme, and
buried the song in an undisclosed location.
At a later unspecified time James
the Hammond player tried to retrieve the master song, but was
apprehended and beaten so badly by the rest of the band that he now
has to play gigs seated.
“He now understands why it
had to happen” claim the band.
“I now understand why it had
to happen” agrees James.
So friend, enjoy MASHTUN
GRACE as you see fit. But remember one thing. MASHTUN GRACE have the
power to destroy music as we know it. So speak nicely to them.
