Grillust Goes on Tour



You're probably aware that Grillust and 'rock music' are virtually synonymous. There's not a day goes by when we aren't contacted by record company A&R people who need to hastily name a new band or artiste. For example, we've recently given the world of music:

  • The Floppy Collar Hoops (Psychedelia)
  • Selfie and The Soup Eaters (American Roots Rock)
  • Concrete Pontoons (Prog)
  • N'Shit (Drum 'n' Bass)
  • Beef Walkabout (Hair Metal)
  • Brown From the Waist Down (Folk)
  • Minuscule Internet Pipe (New Rave)
  • Cheese Pioneer (Synth Pop)
  • The Flowery Cartouches (Psychedelia [again])
  • Barnes Wallace and His Bouncing Bombs (50s Rock 'n' Roll)
  • Digital Monty Don (Speed Gabba)
  • The Savage Corners (Death Metal)
However, we are aware that we've been living vicariously and with that in mind we've decided to 'hit the road' in the summer break and take in some of the 'happeningest' music venues the North has to offer.

The Grillust team have created two bands. Headliners Aural Fixation and support act, Elitist Pedestal.

Aural Fixation comprise:

Tony "Perked" Peart - Lead Guitar
Martin "Why am I here" Fowler - Drums
Dwayne "Wee 'Un" Bell - Lead Vocals & pocket billiards
"Jiminy" Jim Millington - Bass Guitar

and have a sound that could best be described as 'tuneless'.

Elitist Pedestal are a much more highbrow proposition, peddling as they do Semiotic Synth Pop. Interestingly they are also the world's first four-piece trio...

Their line up is as follows:

Nick "NO, I don't look like Morrissey" Dodds - Vocals & Barthes (yes he does)!
Rhiannon "No Mercy" Robinson - Triangle (isosceles)
Zoe "The Duchess" Garnett-Scott - Glass Harmonica (broken)
"Future" Dave Robert - Stylophone

Come and see us - after all, we've got plenty of tickets left.
