   About Modular Lounge

In March 2007 Modular Lounge sisters Greer and Sophie Turner decided to leave Sydney and trek down the Hume Highway to settle the band in Melbourne, with 200 shows under their belt and their debut album ‘Nightwise’ in tow. With the search on for a new rhythm section, their hunt was rewarded when Benjamin Dartnell on bass joined the band, and more recently; Gustav Lindstom from Sweden on drums.

The band originally formed in Sydney 3 years ago. Since then Modular Lounge have played everywhere from small country town pubs, to performing to over 8000 spectators at The Sydney Entertainment Centre.

‘Nightwise’, produced by Dave ‘Duck’ Barraclough from Mental As Anything and Andrew Beck (whose production credits include Grinspoon and Epicure) presents Modular Lounge’s true style. Their album is due for release in the near future.

The band’s music has been described as everything from catchy pop to indie rock with Greer and Sophie’s melodic harmonies contrasting dramatically to their crunching interweaving guitars. The powerful and driving rhythm section behind them add extra depth and intensity.

The band released their first single ‘Martin Place’ (off ‘Nightwise’) on 16 September 2006. The single was given Release of the Week on iTunes, and the clip was added to Channel V’s playlist where it received strong support from viewers.

With the album awaiting release, Modular Lounge recently played a 40-show national tour covering 5 states and territories. The band have received both a Contemporary Music Touring Grant and Music NSW grant to get the band touring with the likes of Magic Dirt, The Veronicas, Airborne, The Whitlams, Missy Higgins, End of Fashion, Thirsty Merc, Sarah McLeod, theredsunband, 67 Special and The Mess Hall.

Modular Lounge are managed by Black Yak Management and booked by the Harbour/Premier Agency. In March 2007, the band and management made a decision to relocate Modular Lounge to Melbourne, where they are now based.

Ello

We are The Room.

Just keeping in touch to let you know we are still alive and kicking haha

We are a Nottingham based alternative rock band, some would say we are a little marmite (either you like us or absolutely detest us) but that’s just the way we like it.

Anyways as you are already a friend of ours we thought we just pass by and say hi as so many people forget to communicate on myspace and that’s basically it

All the best

We are a hardcore band. We dont give a fuck about copyrigths, number of records sold, cool labels or trendy agencies. . We believe that all music should be free, music is an expression of art and art is for everyone to grow with. If you are too concerned about making money to survive with ur music then stop playing hardcore music and join some boy band …
We have decided to offer everyone out there the chance of downloading our CD for FREE as we feel it would be the best way to spread our message on self, human, earth and animal liberation and reach as many kids as possible.
Nothing else matters. All we aim at is that everyone out there can take a close look at our lyrics and get inspired, get in touch with us, book our shows, do interviews and keep the spirit of hardcore high.
Give us feedback on our songs, ask us questions, tell ur friends to download our music and play it out loud. The VEGAN STRAIGHT EDGE is on the rise again!!!
