Fake Tan were formed in 2000 by tantrum and recorded the album 'Snippets' that year. Work begun on the second album in the autumn of 2001 and is due out in 2005.

BAND

are Nikki Grant, Tom Fraser. All provide guitars, bass', vocals, drums, samples and produce the music. Additional sounds have come from Arthur Finlay (Tinkerbell's Dope Ring, Realm of the Shoppingtrolley, Blab) and John Cura (Realm of the Shoppingtrolley, Blab).

MUSIC

Sort of ambient lofi guitar music, sometimes with vocals, sometimes not, with quite a lot of other recorded sounds from tv, radio, out the window and stuff. The sound is guitars, basses, drums (sampled and programed), keyboards (so far: A yamaha Portatone, a bontempi and now a midi keyboard playing computer-based instruments), vocals (rarely), and lots of effects.
