Biography
London, United Kingdom (1994 – present)
Quickspace was a London-based experimental rock band started in 1994.
Quickspace formed in London, originally under the name Quickspace Supersport. Tom Cullinan, vocalist and guitarist, was formerly in Th’ Faith Healers but developed their punky sound into a more tuneful but experimental style. Quickspace formed their own record label called Kitty Kitty, but while releasing many of their records through this, also released on other labels such as Domino Records and Elefant Records.
Their first single, ‘Found a Way’, was released on the Love Train label, followed later that year by Superplus, an EP released on Domino, which got into the Indie Top 40 and earned them a reputation as a kind of “Stereolab that rocks”, although this does not seem too appropriate, given their previous output. However, the label stuck.
Wendy, Max and Barry left the band, leaving Tom and Sean to think over what to do next. Rather than call it quits, they recruited Nina Pascale (vocals/guitar), Paul Shilton (keyboards) and Chin (drums), dropped the ‘Supersport’ part and started working again.
‘Friend’, the first single recorded with the new line-up, came out in early 1996 and was remarkably reminiscent of th’ late Faith Healers. It was the second release on Kitty Kitty, after the band had decided to decline offers by other labels, keep a low profile and release their stuff themselves.
