This is the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth! James Brown, Patti Smith and the MC5, while having their weekly bowling match, were bandnapped by the Mahavishnu Orchestra at gunpoint (yes, gunpoint I tell you!). They threw them into a room with Beatles' music blarin' in the background and forced 'em (remember the gunpoint now) to write a boatload of tunes with them.

Or, in other words...
Coup Detroit - a lot of rock, a lot of funk, alternative enuf, a chick who can sing!

Or, in still other words more to the point and plainer yet...
Coup Detroit - an incendiary emulsion of rock, paper scissors invaginated in prime numbers!

   About Coup Detroit


In mid January 2005, on the music heavy streets of Deetroit, a shoeless, beat-keeping, test-your-click-track-to-him, bangin' drummer John Turnage, along with a bass-slappin'. stick-master Glenn Poorman, and a fingers-flyin' guitarist Dan Holmes, met up with Julie Marcos - a voice large enuf to make a totally micless stadium vibrate like a, well, like a 5-speed vibrator stuck on five.

COUP DETROIT (koo deh-twa) was born.

With their on-meter, off-metered tunes and their "yep - that's what I thought" lyrics and melodies, someone new, different and yet familiar has grooved onto the music scene!

May 10 2007 4:19 PM

I fianlly was able to figure out why the video would not play. Myspace does not tell anyone that there is not only a size limit, there is a time limit. So I divided the video in 2 segements. This really doesn't do this very talented band justice, but, you can here the talent that all of these great musicians have..Enjoy!

Hey! Just sayin' hello to my favorite new age motor city band. Hope all is well with you! Had the pleasure of having Adam Allen at my home a couple of weeks ago. We jammed and I digitized and published some VHS footage from Badfinger that had never been released. Go to my Myspace page and check out Badfinger in my video section, video page 2. Very cool stuff. Hope to see you guys soon!
Take care!
