Llanelli calling Glitter interview, May 2001 Curerbell are Kevin Jones (guitar, vocals and music) and John Paul Zammit (bass and lyrics), they are both 22 years old and come from Llanelli, southwest Wales. The boys went to the same school as Aled from Catatonia (although he�s older than them) and they�re currently searching for a drummer. Tarw Dur were shocked to find out that they�re still unsigned. John Paul came up with the name Curerbell. �It's just a name, but a good one, don't you think?� says Kevin. Absolutely! Kevin and John Paul have similar tastes in music, films and comedy and they�re both vegetarians. At the moment they don't feel part of any scene. �I don't think there is one any more, most bands are independent and everyone's competing at the end of the day,� says Kevin, whose favourite song of all time is Motorcycle Emptiness by the Manic Street Preachers. He�s also a great fan of Swedish bands, especially Kent. �First musical memory?� "Doctor, doctor, can't you see I'm burning, burning..." 80's song, I'm not sure who sings it.� �Who�s on Curerbell�s cool list, then?� �Thom Yorke, Gruff Rhys, Cerys Matthews, Sheryl Crow, Lauryn Hill, Cia Berg, Shirley Manson, us.� �Stereophonics vs. Catatonia?� �Catatonia definitely.� �Who did you admire as kids?� �Han Solo, Luke Skywalker, He Man, John Barnes.� �What's the naughtiest thing you've done?� �Stolen two CD's when I was younger.� �What did you dream last night?� �Various things, I can only remember some parts now, I was telling my friend how disappointed I was with R.E.M's new album.� �Beer or wine?� �Beer.� Curerbell�s superb debut CD You Bring The Balloons is available to buy, it's a limited edition and has Charlotte�s personal favourite Confetti on it. If you�re interested in buying the CD send a cheque for �3.50 to K. Jones, 37 Pendderi Road, Llanelli, Carmarthenshire SA14 9PL, Wales. Contact Details: Kev: [email protected] |
