About Captains

- Beat Magazine:


"[Captains] craft a tapestry of sound that is fiercely original...it's clear that you are experiencing something refreshingly challenging and uncompromising in its vision - at times invoking that uneasy "Who's behind me?" feeling you get when you're watching a movie you know your parents wouldn't approve of."


Picture this: The B52s merge with Talking Heads, take their cues from Madness, and spend a year in isolation - wrap it all in mum's love and you have Captains.

Originating in Sydney, Captains are Australia's foremost independent art-rock band. Exploding onto the scene with their debut EP "Keep Yourself Occupied," the band has won many fans, critics and accolades.

2009 sees Captains move it over to the other side of the world. LA based producer Rick Parker (The Dandy Warhols, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club), will be working with the band in May, while their appearance at Canadian Music Week in March will begin their US tour.

"Keep Yourself Occupied" is available worldwide on itunes. Stay tuned for part two.....

"Tight as a nun's @$% and criminally groovy, the Captain is large and in charge."
