Artist description Yeah, it's (*post-punk era*) pop all right: The good ol' fashioned home-grown, garage-recorded melodies that have enchanted the hearts of youths for 5 decades. Not always exactly in tune, and not always exactly polished, but always with heart and, more importantly, with wit.

Music Style Edgey Guitar Pop Combing elements of 60s British Invasion, Garage, Psychedelia, Glam, Power Pop, 70s Punk, New Wave, and Indie Rock. The Children of Science play 'Lo Fi Independent Post-Punk Pop'. And I use a British accent when I sing, despite my American Citizenship.

Musical Influences Kinks, Beatles, Bowie, Pixies, Wire, XTC, Syd Barrett, The Cars, Nirvana, Donovan, Ween, The Jam, Zombies, Tomorrow, Slow Jets, Bernie (Bernie Headflap), Spoon, Turtles, Peter Gabriel, the Who, DEVO... as well as Children's Music, Chanteys, Marches, 30s Calypso, and Music Hall

Artist History After taking a substantial portion of Western France during WWII, Gary decided to settle down, reform his Colonialist State, and form a Big Band, which played a herky-jerky brand of Shimmies. His Boogie and Jive eventually fell pray to the rising Popular Music phenomenon propagated by the wireless. He excelled at crafting catchy hooks, but also abandoned the fishing trade to become a Pop Star. The rest is the pending.

Group Members Gary A. Brown and his very British Band -- Virgil Wigglesworth (lead guit), Malcolm Coppersmith (bass), Graham Farthing (Keyboards), Margret Hastingsfield (backing vocals), Trent Worcestershire (crumpets, lorries, crisps, and draught beer), Colin Socialized-Medicine (drums), and Cedric son of Aethelred son of Aethelwulf (history lessons).

Instruments Gary---Voices (girl, boy and puppet), guitars, basses, keys, drums, percussion, reverb, programming, samples, viola, piano, recorder, and mandolin
