Islands歌手简介:
加拿大独立摇滚乐队The Unicorns在2003年发行了《Who Will Cut Our Hair When We're Gone?》后解散,成了加拿大摇滚家族里头另一支聪慧早夭的队伍。乐队成员Nick Diamonds与J'aime Tambeur决定于2005年重起炉灶,另组成新乐队Islands。持续闯荡江湖。 Islands是一组以Nick与J'aime两人为核心的音乐公社,其余成员可视用途或场合的不同来做调整。配合编曲与现场演出的需求,不同才艺的乐手共同脑力激荡,使Islands的包容性与延展度均大幅提升。首张专辑《Return To The Sea》在自家厂牌 Equator Records名下推出(封面采用了十九世纪德国知名的表现主义画家Caspar David Friedrich名作The Sea Of Ice),并邀得了Arcade Fire与Wolf Parade成员助阵。

After the breakup of popular experimental lo-fi indie rock band the Unicorns, members Nicholas Thorburn (aka Nick Diamonds; vocals, guitar, keyboard) and Jaime Thompson (aka J'aime Tambeur; drums) formed Islands, which found the two more focused on brighter production and neo-psychedelic indie pop. Since forming in early 2005, the Canadian band has also featured a fluctuating lineup of contributors on a wide variety of instruments, both live and on record. That list includes Alex and Sebastian Chow (the 1993 and 1994 World Super NES Fest champions), Jim Guthrie (grandson of Woody and nephew of Arlo), and rappers Subtitle and Busdriver. Islands released the debut album Return to the Sea in April 2006 through Rough Trade in the U.K. and Equator in North America. For one of its first shows, Islands opened for Beck at the 2005 Pop Montreal music festival, followed in October 2005 by a short tour with Beck. On another tour in early 2006 the band was opening for Metric. That May the band announced that Tambeur would be leaving Islands, citing a loss of interest in being in a band.
