Wind & Brackets. One sings, two guitar and hit keys, one slaps bass, one hits drums. We do this together and we like the sound that happens. Some other people we know said they like the sound that comes out as well so we kept doing it. We've been doing it for longer than a little while
We like bands.
THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW...
National and international supports = The Stranglers, Art Brut, The Cops, Sparkadia... etc
We released our first 2 track AA Side single digitally around the world. The title track of the AA Side, Nu Nu (Za Za) (pretty shit), but was added to the playlist on Triple J and also received airplay on influential Los Angeles radio KCRW and Indie 103.1fm. The band was also featured as part of a Triple J Unearthed ABC TV special in late 2007 - nice.
January 2008 - Wind & Brackets went to Applewood Studios. "Hey Magoo, what's up?"..."Not much guys, I hear you use keys now. Awesome. Now let's lay this shit down!". So ‘Fire in the Ocean’ was born, hit stores like JB Hi-fi through great distributors like MGM and went black like the inside of a coffin on a moonless night. ‘Break the Glass’ = added to Triple J radio nationally and continues to be played on that sometimes and on awesome stations like 4ZzZ and other community radio.
I really dig this song - w&b's ep is really strong, but this is a standout. damn brisbane keeps pumping out the gold at the moment… Nick Findlay, triple j - Wow... thanks Nick Findlay!

Thankyou for being a friend of New Translation. Great sounds on this space. We invite you to taste a section of our upcoming album with a track named 'Found'. On this track we have liberal sprinklings of Geoff Bradley and Pete Raidel (Goose) on trumpet and sax respectively, the dish finished with Tony Minnieconn's patented vocal awesomesauce. Please let us know what you think? The track will be up for the month of May so get your fill until our anticipated album release towards years end. Cheers Shaun M
well they got an OK write-up in the street press down here last week, but i get the feeling australia isn't going to be on their touring schedule much, if at all. even the last tour was only to a half-full room .... tragic.
and we should be back in brisbane later this month (i think) with bluejuice!
