In a time where every rock star and their dog are joining forces comes the unique sound of BARB. With an Antipodeans darling line-up of Liam Finn, Lawrence Arabia, Connan Mockasin, Eliza-Jane and Seamus Ebbs, BARB aren't just counting on their individual indie laurels to get noticed in this dog-eat-dog existence. Seeding the first thoughts of BARB while all living in London, it took three years of fantasising, cross-pollinating and some humorous e-mail chains before these five friends found themselves back in NZ at Roundhead Studios.

"It seemed only natural" muses Liam. "We have been involved in each others music for so long... getting up to play at each others shows... touring together when possible, we knew starting a band together would be fun... but we had no idea what it would sound like."

 

BARB's sound however, can only be described as 'different'. Different from what the band expected, different from the crap you hear when you turn on the radio, different from the latest Danger Mouse production, probably different from what this blurb will lead you to imagine.

Don't miss your chance to get involved and personal with this not so famous, dare we say SUPER-GROUP, called: BARB.
