My Second guests on the show this week was the Band Kaleidophone.
Kaleidophone who are from Maidstone took some time out to travel down to the phoenix fm studio to chat about their new single and EP.
The lads got together in 2007 and built a studio before doing anything else!!!!.
In 2008 they began to write in their new surroundings, releasing the single Arcachon,In 2010 they signed to Tin Robot Records, a label which boasted among its recent signings ex REM and Posies member Ken Stringfellow.
The band released their first single on the label FAT CATS , their next single Mr Palava achieved national airplay in 2010 being played to BBC 5 live’s Music Review and earning the band the tag
The lads completed dates throughout summer of 2010 and then set about recording their first and self produced Album from August ’10 through to March ’11‘What’s Your Tonic?’
Through the next two years the band then toured the album throughout the UK playing support slots for the likes of Mr Hudson, Man Like Me, Emilia Mitiku, The Blueberries, SPACE, The Cuban Brothers and culminating in 2013 with a stage headline at Brownstock on the bill with bands such as Professor Green and Tom Odell.
In 2013 the band left Tin Robot Records having bought back the rights to their first album ‘What’s Your Tonic?’. Now independent they brought in producer Charles Rees (Paul Weller, Miles Kane) on two new tracks. The first one of which ‘What You’re Made Of’ which was released in January 2014.
