To all our fans,

It is with great regret to announce that we have decided to go on indefinite hiatus. In the five or so years that we have been performing, we have met some truly amazing people, played at some stunning venues & amassed the most loyal & rocking fans a band could ever hope to have.

All of us still remain on very good terms with each other and we will no doubt continue to have a hand in each others musical endeavours in the future.

All of us have the intention of continuing to create music although this will no longer be as a collective.

We wanted to thank all of our friends, family, partners & most importantly our fans for continuing to support us over the years. We were the luckiest band in the world to have such a loyal fan base. Your love and support for our music was truly an inspiration & we owe you a great debt of gratitude.

We have left you with 2 new songs 'Sleeping Dogs Lie' and 'Count Me In' on our profile as a final farewell and thank you.

Signing off,

The Miscreant Lads

BIO AS IT WAS..

Combine the purest elements of old school rock and funk and blend them in with the finest intricate grooves in the land and you have the infectious sound of Miscreant. This Auckland five piece have been storming live venues since forming in 2004 and have grasped every live show with a vigour and passion that is gaining them the reputation of one of the country’s finest acts on the rise.

It was back in late 2004 while living together guitarist David Edtmaier and vocalist Chris Brebner begun to write and collate a collection of songs which were developed, torn apart and pieced back together again to make the bones of Miscreant’s debut album Complicated Characters, released in 2008.

While writing Edtmaier and Brebner sought out drummer Damian Hilt and bassist Alan Treanor to make the band a live force to be reckoned with. It was not until 2007 after a self released EP, a marathon of shows and the trialing of a dual vocalist and extra guitarist that Miscreant returned to the four piece format and went into York Street and Studio 203 with legendary engineer Andrew Buckton. It was six months in the making with Buckton recording, mixing and producing, and the end result (and the goal of Miscreant) was to have a debut album to tear your ears off and make you get up and dance all in one moment. Complicated Characters is out now and is an eclectic blend of rock, funk, soul and contemporary grooves. It was mastered by Ryan Smith at New New York (Live, Paramore, Talking Heads).

This album with mainstream appeal tinged with an edge of menace always needed to be something that Miscreant could replicate live. In June 2008 the band enlisted keys specialist Nathan Cooper to be able to sustain and expand upon the huge amount of keys work used on Complicated Characters then performed by Stephen Small (Autozamm). Cooper also provided another facet to the songwriting arsenal which was timely as the band had already started creating new material.

Their first single from Complicated Characters ‘Fight For Me’ showed the sound of a band with old school rock running through their veins and rightly so: picked up by the Rock, C4 and Juice networks ‘Fight For Me’ was a good stepping stone into the release of the funk-soaked ‘Rhythm Child’ which has recently stormed it’s way on to the Rock, Kiwi FM and Radio Hauraki and hit the NZ Music Top 40 airplay charts.

With over three years of crafting Complicated Characters amongst a variety of musical styles and influences, Miscreant have begun focusing on creating new songs for a follow up album. One that promises to be more of a rock-focused explosion and less ‘eclectic’ than the debut. As long as it sounds like Miscreant as a live band and doing what they do best.

'Complicated Characters' is out now in all good record stores, and available digitally on iTunes, and Amplifier.co.nz For more information about Miscreant please contact matt@isaacpromotions.com or visit www.miscreantband.com

I'm in shock!  That is really sad news, your music rocks!  I still have the CD Demo Dave sent me a couple of years ago with Hey Mister and other songs and hearing you get air time on the different radio stations was exciting and i'm sure I will still hear your songs for time to come!! Good luck to you all with your future music careers.
