Biography

The long awaited debut album from Macaca Mulatta has finally arrived. Initially formed by ex Art Brut guitarist and songwriter ‘Chris Chinchilla’ in London, the band travelled throughout the Europe and America and finally settled in Melbourne with a new line up. After several months of intense and storming gigs this debut album was finally recorded and after a crowning performance at the Myers basement the last Saturday before Christmas, the band split up.

This is an album about Rock & Roll in the real world, the life of a weekend rock star, balancing your passions and desires with work and personal commitments. Songs about finding your place in the world, frustration, madness, corruption of innocence, losing your way and momentous changes.

The album took six hours to record in the child care wing of Yarraville Community centre, an eighteenth century school building. Recorded amongst children’s artwork and toys the tracks contain an immediacy and vibrancy fresh from the bands infamous live shows.

The album is currently available for download through Indiestore from the following sites :

    Amazingly, and to be honest, I didn't actually take it seriously until someone else pointed it out... We're in the top 15 of the Chupa Chups band competition... So please vote for us at : <a href=http://www.myspace.com/chupachupsstickout target=_blank>www.myspace.com/chupachupsstickout</a>; We win lots of lollies, or world wide fame or something...

    I don't know why, but for some reason I just spent five minutes staring at the title trying to figure out what it means to dance on a 'wee knight' before it dawned on me it was, well, 'weeknight'. Splendid song.
