Keira and Alex came up for the idea of a band on the plane ride home from DC, where the first song (Crazy Eyes) was written. They planned on asking Madeline to be included...but didn't get to it for a long time for fear of rejection. When they did ask, though, Madeline agreed. Alex went to music camp in Summer '06 where she met the awesome Shelan, who was invited to be in the band.
The Birthday Parties is not a definite name...We've just failed to create another one.
BY the way...the one song we have up does NOT sound like that on the CD. Having had to convert the file from a .wma to a .mp3 somehow changed not only the tempo (from fast to slow) but the tone of voices (from high to low). Also, the only member from The Birthday Parties recorded in that song is Alex, playing bass and singing lead vocals. Sorry for the weird sound you end up hearing. |
