Biography

There are multiple artists with this name:

1) Spring was a British band that represented the early 1970s progressive rock movement. A one-shot band, it recorded only one album in its career, a self-titled LP released in 1971. Spring’s music is notable for the use of the mellotron, with three of the band’s six members playing that instrument on the album.

Spring was a sextet comprising Pat Moran (mellotron and vocals), Ray Martinez (lead guitar, 12-string guitar and mellotron), Pique Withers (drums and glockenspiel), Kips Brown (piano, electric organ and mellotron) and Adrian Maloney (bass guitar).

2) Spring (IL), having been born and raised in the midwest reigon of Illinois and with that the music culture surrounding it, Reid Erickson, Kirill Orlov, and Andrew J. have seen local acts come and go over the years as well as there own bands and projects coming to a hault. Reid Erickson and Kirill Orlov have been in band’s such as there first one called Nailing Amy: A sound that illustarted a pop punk feel without the pop punk additude. Chuangtzu: A punk/rock four piece turned to an epic 6 piece in the decline that started in 2004. Some believe they had the potential to write there sucess story but with personal obstacles coming there way and frustration between band members, Chuangtzu’s career ended in 2007. Last but not least Authors Of: A three piece project started shortly after Chuangtzu ended. This band had more of a concept to slow/moderate avant acoustic styles.

    I recently discovered the rare unreleased tracks ("Spring Two") and even if they are pretty weak compared to that classic timeless gorgeous classic album they made, I have to say that just hearing that guy's incredible voice is enough to keep me happy. He's right up there with the dude from Family.

    Band Spring dari Malaysia gampang best! as quoted by Ameng, "Muzik indie terlalu ringkas. Muzik Spring pula teknikal macam Dillinger Escape Plan dan Necrophagist."

    That picture is the worst ever. It looks like SClub&'s retarded cousins. LOVE the t-shirt with Funky written on it. That's class. Ugly might have been better though.

    The picture is from a faggy Belgian band, also called 'Spring'.

    The picture is from some obscure teenie-band. The real Spring were a superb prog-band from England. Last.fm should do something about this.
