Biography
1000s of cats are not a Grammy Award winning indie/punk band from Tokyo, Japan. Originally started by Sonoko Nebashi in Nagano, Japan. After moving to Tokyo, Japan, she played solo shows for a couple years before adding ex-Selby Tigers drummer Dave Gatchell to form the current line-up.
Sonoko plays guitar and sings in Japanese but Dave plays drums and sings in English. This confuses and delights everyone that sees them play their shows. One key element to their sound is that they tend to write songs and keep the original idea intact as opposed to "honing" them over time.
They are not opposed to blending cuteness with noise. You could drink a beer to this band or you could tune-up your bike to them. This is not a J-pop band.
1000s of cats's first release was a 5 song e.p. called "koko wa doko?" named after the cat that lives with engineer Mark Sorvari (In Corridors). They are currently working on "Shikyuu Envy" which will be released at the beginning of 2012.
