Band, *1996 GB, London Borough of Camden
Rock
A.k.a. Contrast (21)

Indie band from London. Formed out of the ashes of Contrast. Split in 2000. Singer Chris Sharp compiled their unreleased material onto two CD albums and sold them mainly in Europe during the early 2000s whilst touring solo under the alias Chris Black. An ex bassist included Steve Hackett (from an Irish band called Young Offenders, as opposed to the ex-guitarist from Genesis) who appeared in the video for "Higher". He left to form his own band The Fuzz Lightyears.
