Kings X meets the Foo Fighters, with a little Incubus gravy on top!
Main stays Jim Noble (guitar/vocals) Sy Morton (bass/vocals) continue with their vision of a band that defies genre and relies on good song writing, good vocals and good musicianship to carry them through.
The original three piece honed their sound with hours of practise, adding the unique (at the time) element of live percussion to their line up in the shape of Colin Lovatt.
Drummers come and drummers go, and thats exactly what happened in 2003. Out went founder member Chris Jones in came Mik Gaffney.
Mik immediately put his stamp on the bands sound (in fact one of their first song writing sessions yielded fans favourite Broken!).
The new four-piece continued to develop their sound until Colin decided to quit the band to continue his life Down Under. Colin has now returned to the UK, and is playing drums for Blondee.
So Tortilla Army reverted to a trio format, something all three members were comfortable with, and it wasnt until during a string of dates with U.S. act Moth (where they acquired the use of Moths touring guitarist for an evening) did the band feel that a little extra depth was needed.
A second guitarist was added in shape of Joe Coomes, the band finally had the perfect line up. Never before did Tortilla Army have such a full sound and the right balance of the right people.
Tortilla Army has come a very long way from the initial steps in the backroom of the East Kent (spiritual home) to where they are now, and things continue to move forward, with a fourth album in the works, an ever increasing presence on My Space, dates with U.S. bands Moth & Fizzgig and upcoming tours with the Mighty Freak Kitchen in 2008 being put together as we speak.
The Army keeps marching on
