MODENA VOX is a rock & roll quintet from Columbus, OH. The band is notable as one of the few "buzz bands" of the regional rock and roll underground with a growing cult following in America and Europe. The band self-released their first recording, the 'Strange Nights' EP and played only their fourth public performance at the SXSW music fest in Austin on the strength of their freshman effort. The sound is at times reminiscent of some of the great bands that have influenced them, (Beatles, Felt, Stone Roses), but the band manages to lay claim to a unique sound unto itself, fusing a dance sensibility with infectious hooks and sing-a-long melodies to create a sound not unlike the epic feel created by many of the great pop rock bands like Oasis, Blur, and The Rolling Stones. The appeal of their songs transcends conventional genre barriers. In 2006 MODENA VOX teamed up with acclaimed producer J.P. Bowersock (The Strokes, Ryan Adams) to record their second (eponymous) EP in Woodstock, New York at Mark Dann Studios. They just finished their debut LP with Eric French at Oath Studios & John Chinn at Workbook Studios in Columbus to initially critical acclaim. The LP 'Transportation' is now available for purchase on-line.
The MODENA VOX live performance has stirred a buzz throughout the midwest, east coast, southwest, and southern U.S. Time Out NY Magazine calls MODENA VOX "a must see up and coming band," and the New York Daily News spotlighted MV along with Interpol, Social Distortion and more as one of the five hottest shows in anticipation their last trip to play NYC at The Trash Bar in Williamsburg Brooklyn. MODENA VOX was recently featured in their first national television appearance on Budweiser's True Music with Katie Daryl, which was filmed in Austin, Texas. The band will be touring throughout 2007 in a number of cities including NYC, Boston, Philadelphia, Washington D.C., Pittsburgh, Indianapolis, Lexington, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Louisville, Detroit, Nashville and more. The new website will be up very soon so in the meantime stay tuned right here on Myspace for updates and information.

Phil Kieran is switching gears again. After three years of almost total dedication to his critically acclaimed Alloy Mental project ( www. myspace. com/alloymental), the Belfast DJ and producer is back to doing what he does best, making his own distinctive brand of dance music. Kieran has dug out the old techno gems , reflected on early influences like Joy Division and Aphex Twin, tipped his hat to newcomers like Marc Houle and Audion, and set to work on producing a catalogue of sure-fire dancefloor killers, for offer over the coming months. Last year Phil brought us ’Skyhook’ on Novamute and hooked up with Cocoon to release ‘I think I’m a monster’. Following both tracks widespread success the German label is also set to unleash ’Missp’ in March 08. Recent remix work includes ‘Hold my hand’ for UNKLE and the upcoming ‘Dancing Bears’ for Roel H, which is set to be massive.
