HARMONIC GENERATOR
Brothers Alex Roussel(Drums) and Charl Roussel(Guitar) grew up together in the south of France with friends Nikk Helinger(bass), Renaud Satre(guitar) and Quentin Barthes-Villegas(Vocals). Their parents US, UK and Oz rock vinyl albums never left the turntables in their formative years, the band a natural progression in their passion for rock.
Mid 2010 the band embarked on a life defining music experience touring to Australia for 1 year which saw them sign professional management, see quality studio time and release their first single ‘Dead On The Ground’ through Lungata Records.
The single was supported with “Le Downside Up” tour engulfing the main cities of Australia and included the Caxton Street Festival in Brisbane with some of that countries elite bands including Kevin Borich and Shihad.
Returning to France May 2011 had Harmonic Generator perform at Glanum Rock Festival at St Remy France where they blew the stage and their fans apart with the new found power. The band had evolved during their 12 month stint in Oz.
Harmonic Generator are currently in discussion with some of the most highly acclaimed producers in Australia to record the bands 12 new tracks with a planned tour in 2012 leading to that recording that will engulf France, Nederland's, UK, Germany and land them back in Australia to capitalize on their recent success. Announcement will be made soon.

OUR INNOCENCE LOST
Formed in 2006, Manchester-based four piece OUR INNOCENCE LOST have earned themselves a reputation as one of the hardest working young rock bands on the live circuit today. As well as completing a 36-date UK tour with American band Darling Waste last year they have supported the likes of Voodoo 6, Glamour Of The Kill, Jody Has A Hitlist, Dear Superstar, Reckless Love, My Passion, Vanna, Kiros and Agraceful, the band also toured with Blessed By A Broken Heart and Love Hate Hero in the USA in 2009. OUR INNOCENCE LOST straddle a driving, post hardcore rock base with a modern look and feel.
Currently recording their second album which is due for release in January/February 2012, plans are already afoot to promote this eagerly awaited sophomore release with tours in Europe, USA and Asia.
"THEY MIGHT have toured the States with Blessed by a Broken Heart and released their debut album via a Japanese record label, but local heroes Our Innocence Lost have had a far shorter journey tonight. Delivering smart, slick and sexy slabs of driving melodic rock, they set the stage perfectly for fellow Mancunians Dear Superstar" Paul Trowers (Kerrang)
“This band have the sort of furious energy and neat melodies that entices you to hear and see more” MALCOLM DOME (Metal Hammer)
"Very energetic, fresh and lively. Check them out"
MUDKISS fanzine
"An intoxicating swirl of sound...a promising glimpse into the future"
