About Urbantramper from Wellington
(from their website)
We play, write, perform and record music...We also engage in other creative endeavours...
Lake (vocals, acoustic guitar, bass, keyboard), Phil Jones (bass, Bvs, keyboard/computer), Andy Hoy (drums/samples)
We have entitled our music: 'Future folk'.
Future - because we are in a state of becoming and our music is an aural representation of unrealised dreams.
Folk - because we write simple songs for everyone to play and sing along to.
We're currently experimenting with ElectricUTOPIA
Manifesto-in-progress: ElectricUTOPIA is an aural representation of
unrealised dreams. It's the soundtrack to the future we forgot -
Urbantramper still holds a hope for that future. Utopia, used
positively, gives shape to our idealistic musings. It is the northern
star that we strive for but cannot, and will not, ever reach. It is this
unattainable quality which gives utopia its value a conceptual tool.
Urbantramper is a member of the Home Alone Music collective.
