Artist History Before there was CLONE, there were three frustrated musicians. Two came from a pop band that did nothing but covers. One came from a classical background laced with blues and misunderstandings. In 1999, frustration gave birth to a need for expression, experimentation and the return of the 'fun' factor to music. And thus was CLONE born. From a deep-seated spirituality and a desire to let loose the inner workings of brains overloaded with strange ideas, machine bleeps and fibrillating drum patterns.

Press Reviews "They end their Mayric's set with a weirdly attractive number called 'Nothing Yet' which swings around in different time signatures but never feels pretentious. When Sheerin veers off into a coda that goes la la la la in the middle of all the despairing harmonies, I suddenly know what music these guys grew up on: New wave-- Oblique lyrics, gothic themes. Love gone awry. Yearning and angst dressed in silky melodies." --- Girl Chakra (www.punksnotdie.com)
