  • Bio

    TEAM RED ARE AFTER GIGS AND ARE KEEN TO SUPPORT AND COLLABORATE WITH OTHER BANDS / ACTS / PROJECTS. A NEW ALBUM TITLED 'PRIME SUSPECTS' COMING OUT SOON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!..................One day Billy and Cam (the 1920's time traveller) were driving along...one of those long crazy days. The time traveller suddenly wound down the driver's window, shoved his clenched fist out in the air, and yelled out "Team Red". Billy (aka the tard, the filth generaor, the fruit cake,) declared that would be a spiffy name for a band.....then some time later Bill and Cam found themselves collaborating over the internet and in person, and so Team Red was born. Later Bill was dragged along by his cultured German freind Kurtles to La Mama Theatre, feeling quite awake after conversing with a dodgy lebanese man, noted that a young gentleman called Jez Speelman described himself as a cartoon and his performance was exactly that. So soon 'Jez', after sandwiches and fish joined the band, and they went and performed in Wagga Wagga in 2004. Performing at various venues including Glitch Bar, Horse Bazaar, The Art House, The East Brunswick Hotel, etc. Team Red continued in this megastar line up creating crazy, lo-fi, collage electronica and collaborating with poets, experimental artists and talented musicians over the years........................................................................................................ The 1920's Time Traveller! Cam's involvement varied, due to personal and work commitments, but he was still an enthusiastic, active member of Team Red. During his time with Team Red he contributed a number of crucial tracks and samples used in backing for live performace whilst performing with us when available. He contributed a written apocalyptic piece for the "But is it Poetry?" gig during Overload Poetry Festival 2005 wich he was present for and was a stand out gig for early Team Red. In late 2007 Cam became more involved after establishing his computer and web design business and the plan was for all three members to travel with Cam in his newly aquired Mercedes to TINA Festival in New Castle. Tragically Cam died in a car crash a week before TINA. Cam will allways be missed as an important and most loved friend and collaborater and of course the man behind the name Team Red. "Go Team Red!" RIP Cam. XO........................................................................................................... In 2011 Team Red will launching a limited edition Team Red Cassette album through the 'Albert's Basement' label and a CD & DVD release including film clips and live footage. Since 2008 Team Red has been joined by another regular contributer Adam Hunt who became aquainted with the band through his wife Mish's involvement in another of Bill's bands 'Dont burry us beore we are dead' and subsquently Jez's involvement in Adams band 'Sundown and/or Last Stand'....................................................................................................... Team Red has also performed and collaborated with musicians, artists and poets including Steve Whatmough (of 'Dont bury' etc. , and 'Arbituary'), Giles Banister (of 'Sleepville') and Jed Jenner (aka 'Evil Jed'), Steve Smart, Andrew Rodriguez (aka 'Slick') to mention a few. Team red has recently worked with Craig Fox on the soundtrack for his short film "The Jesus Spoon" and designed sound for 'The Fight On Box Hill" - a play by James Jackson + Frank Barressi. We are interested in doing more sound for film and stage. Where is the chicken?...........................................TEAM RED ARE AFTER GIGS AND ARE KEEN TO SUPPORT AND COLLABORATE WITH OTHER BANDS / ACTS / PROJECTS. A NEW ALBUM TITLED 'MILK' COMING OUT SOON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.. I edited my profile with ..Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4..
