Bio
..the grace jones.. is based upon an idea conceived by ..manda.. and the ..goat.. in a field in eindhoven in 1998. .... in april 2006 it finally started happening for real when goat started to create terrible noises for cathartic purposes in the back room of his house in belfast, northern ireland. he remembered the conversation with manda from 1998 and thought he would try to look her up to lay some vocals on the terrible noises..... after a dedicated thirty minutes of late night drunken googling, goat found manda... 11,000 miles away in auckland, new zealand..... not to be deterred by living on perfect opposite points of the planet, they went ahead and did it anyway..... this has involved several months of sending files back and forth between Northern Ireland and New Zealand, and communicating in short bursts in the 30 minutes or so of each day that they are both awake for..... the result is ..the grace jones....... .. ...... .. .. Alternatively, you can support NZ music buy buying our tracks from ..Amplifier.co.nz.. - the home of New Zealand Music. The tracks are a higher bitrate quality than those we have on MySpace. Go check it out and maybe whilst you're there check out some other NZ bands..... ...... .... if you have questions you'd like to ask the band, drop us a message or jump across to ..The Grace Jones Official Forum... .. .. .. .. the grace jones has been assisted by the help of the following good people: .. .. ..ricardo allenzio.. - ..rich played the guitar tracks on some of the new songs heading your way soon.... ..justin maudley.. of york street studio, auckland, new zealand - ..justin records manda's vocals.... .. dave mccullough.. of best cellars belfast - ..dave mastered the tunes on this page.... ..becka mccauley.. - ..becka played the flute tracks on 'weirdlings'............ ........You are now marked on my profile visitor map!...... .... ....This profile was edited with ..MySpace Help - Profile Creator and Editor......MySpace....Profile Help!....
