A travel into your own head, floating in a small green tub full of candy and toys placed there by someone who cares about you, to make you happy when facing the darkest sides of your heart and soul.
The idea of All That and a Bag of Chips came to life when Superhead (rhythm guitar) and Francis Year (vocals) invited the three most handsome guys in school, Brett Specter (lead guitar), Simon Diamond (bass) and Olga (drums), home for a private jam session with free food and drinks...
The two guys who invited had written some songs they usually performed at after-parties to impress girls (and maybe boys?), a trick that often worked.
"Did you guys really write those songs?" people would often ask, "They're really cool, god damn it! You should start a band!" The two boys would go on like this for quite a while, playing their pearls for swine without taking any of the complements they were given seriously. It wasn't until the more serious rock and roll-know-it-all-friends began agreeing with the complements that the boys vision started to take form.
And then the boys did, as mentioned earlier, invite the three most handsome musicians for an informal rehearsal. The rehearsal was an immediate success. The three newcomers gave the songs the energy and elegance that Superhead and Year had been dreaming of. All That And A Bag Of Chips was a fact.
At the end of the summer of 2004 All That And A Bag Of Chips played their debut concert before the full crowded cellar of Samfunnet in Oslo. Amongst the audience stood the expecting rock and roll-friends and after party girls, and when the band hit the stage the atmosphere turned beyond ecstatic. In 2004, the band recorded their EP Music To Go in the George Martin Studios in Liverpool and played at several highly regarded stages in Oslo such as Blå, Mono and Garage. Their EP "Music To Go" was released December 2005 on Luckee Records. In 2006 the band agreed to be a part of a TV show called "Usett: Bye & Rønning show" where 80.000 people watched them play every week. At the same time ATAABOC went back to Liverpool and recorded their first full-length album "Kitschrock". The band played more shows than ever before, including festivals. "Take Me To Your Leader" was the first single from the record, and was released January 2007 to radio and tv-stations. The video was a hit and made it to the charts on ZTV. "Kitschrock" was released October 8th 2007, and it's now getting harder and harder for All That And A Bag Of Chips to hold on to their underground status.
Their music might give associations to artists such as David Bowie, The Clash, The Who and Roxy Music. The only thing they say about their music themselves is that they play rock. Kitschrock.

Today I would like to let you know about two print magazines in Germany I'm writing for.
"Living Line Dance", reporting about line dance and country music, and "Folk Magazine", reporting about folk and country music. The magazines are high respected in Europe. They offer you a good chance to publicize yourself in Europe and Germany.
For more information, please contact me at MySpace or send email to Ch.Lamitschka@t-online.de with the headline "Advertise at Living Line Dance and Folk Magazine".
Im asking you all from the bottom of my heart... To PLEASE take the
time to watch the movie Invisible Children. You can find it on YOUTUBE.
These children are killed and abducted everyday. If we the people
scream and shout or voices will be heard and some of these precious
children could be saved from a life of pure hell.
I urge you to send this to anyone you know and to also write your
government including Obama. Let your voice along with many many others
be heard. It takes a second to write your concern and will help save
hundreds of dieing children in Uganda.
Look inside your hearts and see that we are all connected and all of us
should be helping our brothers and sisters. Not just Americans but the
world! And we can live in harmony if people would really care.
CountryHome Forum have more than 5,000 members. Each news you submit to CountryHome Forum will released to my weekly Newsletter with more than 50,000 readers.
Please submit your artist news and events to CountryHome Forum to help your artists to get well known better in Europe. If you do not have the time to submit your artist news and events by yourself, please send it me to: Ch.Lamitschka@t-online.de and I will submit them by myself to CountryHome Forum.
I know that many artists from North America don't have their music videos uploaded to German video websites. The most popular websites are MyVideo.de and ClipFish.de. That means your European audience does not have the chance to find them.
I understand that most of you don't speak German and are not able to upload videos because of the language barrier. If you would like me to upload your videos to the German video websites, please let me know.
Thanks
