THE DRAINPIPES are a wild, high
energetic rockabilly outfit from Switzerland. Formed in late 2005 they
combine the sound and look from the fifties with the influences they get
from modern life.
They do some more or less known covers and never-heard-before originals, mainly
sung by David, backed with his wild and versatile electric guitar, Martin's
solid rhythm strumming, Rogers impressive upright bass and Daniela's simple
barebone drums.
They all have different musical backgrounds, they went through Punk, Indie
Noise, Beat, Psychobilly, Ska, Irish Folk and even electronic Kraut stuff,
and though they do straight Rockabilly and Country, they never forget about
the last 60 years of musical history.
In the past year they already did several highly successfull gigs and played
with acts such as the Peacocks or Slim Jim Phantom Trio feat. Darrel Higham.
In august they recorded their first 45 EP, released on PILOT Records.
