Artist description Drum Muscles is a music project of a different variety... It is music that was composed over a distance of over 5,000 nautical miles between two people who never saw eachother during the production. One member sent collections of words, and ideas to his friend in Europe and then the friend turned around and wrote chord progressions over those words and ideas then sent the files back to his friend in America to finish with adding other instruments besides guitar and ultimately doing the final mix down and mastering in the absence of the person who wrote the songs.

Music Style Collagé Rock

Musical Influences Guided By Voices, the Breeders, Elephant Six

Similar Artists A cross between Creedence Clearwater Revival and Guided By Voices

Artist History Drum Muscles started in 2003 as a side project of two Rowntree Records bands, Kitchen Typists and Red Queen Hypothesis. During the Great Red Queen Hiatus of 2003 Drum Muscles wriggled its way out of the dungeon known as Katie Ames' brain. She worked on complex series of thoughts, images and ideas and sent them to Baxter McGee in Europe to rework into rough songs. After Baxter spit out 8 songs in a few days he sent the files back to Katie in America for her to finalize. This has turned out to be a great way to work and exchange ideas and Drum Muscles is a side project that Red Queen Hypothesis will keep going on for quite a long while...
