The Demi Whores

+

The demi whores are

edward gains on geetar and vocals,

marcus francis joyce on bass and backing vocals and

anthony pompeus on drums.

Formed in the year 2001, the demi whores have grown into a must-see live act. Too rock'n'roll just to be pop, too melodic just to rock, too damned crazy to fit into any scene, the whores are currently working on an album deep in the basement of hotel vermont, with tom atkinson at the controls. the recordings are not really like our live show, because the live show is more like an exorcism, losing the plot and perfomance art, where as we try and play the songs properly in the recording studio, instead of hacking them to peices live says edward gains, who himself has recorded 6 solo albums in a lo-fi 4 track stylee. some of the songs are from my albums, and it is cool to beef them up with a band cause a song like 'pussy moon' originally had a casio drumbeat, and was just a little strange.

Now it is a raging beast with some real live drums and bass added. The demi whores have plans to release a film shortly, which is made up from gig footage and studio stuff. we are kinda slow at this recording thing, and our movie will propably be finshed before our album ever is! I am from dunedin, so i like to take my own sweet time, yer know says mr. Gains. Look for a full length demi whores album early next year... Maybe!!!
