Jargon

Tim Gates – Guitar, Vocals
Trevor Montgomery – Bass
Rich Douthit – Percussion
Jason Cauge – Guitar JARGON started out as a more or less noise ridden, live hard rock band, better known as, for some reason, alternative, which they don’t think that they really are, but at the time everything not usual was called alternative. In 1998 JARGON released their self-titled debut, “Jargon” (produced by Robinson Eikenberry) on Lobster Records. It wasn’t punk, it wasn’t hard-core or goth but it was moody and it rocked. JARGON, of course, thought their record was mainstream.

Mahjongg

Chicago party animals, Mahjongg, originally from Columbia, MO, may be nearing the top of Chicago's 'local band' heap, but if you haven't heard of them yet it's probably because their music has made it quite difficult for locals to nail them down in a 'scene.' Mahjongg's shows are always ragers, which often leads attendees to shove (or drop) the actual musicianship from their memories - a shame since they're onto something pretty damn cool.

Plastique

There are multiple artists under this name: 1) From London, UK, Plastique is a British/Brazilian band filled with pounding dance beats, power-chords, dirty synths and so-sexual-it’s-almost-perverted vocals and lyrics. Gabriel (a producer) and Anelise (an actress) met in London in 2005 and quickly became good friends. They had planned to write music together, however she was already due to return to her native Brazil later that year, so the project was indefinitely put on hold. Back in Brazil she met Fabio (a graphic designer) and returned to London with him in 2009.

Black Wire

Black Wire were an English indie rock band from Leeds, UK. The band members were Daniel Wilson (Vocals), Si McCabe (Guitars, backing vocals), Tom Greatorex (Bass) and Danny Prescott (Drums). Black Wire formed in January 2003 and played their first gig within a month of forming, at the Leeds club night Pigs. They then went on to tour excessively playing with such bands as Bloc Party, The Libertines, HARD-Fi, The Cribs, Kaiser Chiefs and The Futureheads.

Jape is the alter-ego of Redneck Manifesto member Richie Egan. Hailing from Crumlin, Dublin 12, he purveys an electronica-heavy music tinged with 'stoner folk'.
