BUBBLEDUBBLE are not just a studio
project as many live shows testify and
computer wizards Steve and Andy show
that improvised psychedelic dub can be
created live.
The band have been together for almost 103 years now, playing at
festivals and small to medium, intimate venues. In 2009 they played
at the Small World, Monnfest and Coalition Festivals, often playing with "special guests".
The band have all known each other for years, regularly meeting up at
free festivals up and down the country and two of them even got arrested in relation to conspiring to, allegedly, organise a number of them. Steve and Andy have worked
together on many occasions and Kev previously sang in Dr Brown and
Heliotrope. After a meeting of laptops and bits of electronics making a
not altogether displeasing cacophony of sounds, Bubbledubble was
born...

Recorded: live on March 16, 2003 at the Beta Lounge in San Francisco
In 1967, San Francisco’s Fifty Foot Hose were certainly one of the
innovators of a sound that took Psychedelia to new heights and was
captured on the band’s one record, Cauldron. They are a totally
unique hybrid—on one hand pulsating bay area acid rock, on the other,
fractured electronic freakery, becoming one whole cohesive being. The
sci-fi-ish video game-like artwork hinted at the sounds within, as did
the Limelight label’s pedigree for truly progressive sounds. Band
leader, Cork Marcheschi, used homemade electronic devices to create
crude and experimental soundscapes and instrumental compositions that
were sprinkled throughout the album.
Often starting shows with a swelling rumble that exploded into the
first song, they soon developed a rabid following on the SF scene,
though there was the occasional totally wrong gig, like when a
very-pregnant Nancy had to perform at a Catholic Girls’ school! Still,
the group wowed the crowds, performing with greats like Chuck Berry and
Fairport Convention.
