[dweeb]

High-octane, low-sanity Coventry band [dweeb] may put their name in parentheses but they are no wallflowers. A good-humoured musical onslaught. [dweeb], who originally met in 2002 at the Nexus music college, are known for their scintillating stage show and have built up an enviable fan base across the UK following five years of gigging both nationally and internationally including a national tour in 2006 with former Bristol based rock band Steve and a recent appearance on BBC3's Singing With the Enemy. They’ve just brought out their first album, It Came From Outer Space. If you’re wondering what they sound like, the band proffers the following: “autumn leaves falling upon the dew soaked meadow in Provence at dawn. As the sun rises the native Ortolan bird begins to sing its melodious song of joy and beauty”. That clears that up, then. Factoid: one of their members is a duck called King Windsor III. In a word: crazee
