  • Spacehog were formed by natives of Leeds, England in the spring of 1994 in New York City. Guitarist Antony Langdon met drummer Jonny Cragg at a cafe in the East Village where Cragg worked killing rats in the basement. The pair agreed to make music and Langdon persuaded his younger brother Royston to move to the States to sing and play bass. The current lineup was finally completed Craggs’ friend Richard Steel who moved to New York to fill out an all Yorkshire lineup. The band quickly generated a following and record company interest with their epic live shows and sharp, irreverent and mesmerizing song craft. They signed with Sire Records in the Spring of 1995. Spacehog, with producer Bryce Goggin recorded their platinum debut ‘Resident Alien’ at Bearsville Studios later that year, scoring a mega-hit single with ‘In The Meantime’ in early 1996. The band’s follow up; "The Chinese Album", was released in 1998, taking a more thoughtful and conceptual approach, it consolidated their appeal In Europe and South America, and tours with The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Aerosmith and The Sex Pistols. The advent of the new millennium saw more touring with REM and Oasis and a third album; The Hogyssey, recorded at Ardent Studios in Memphis with producer Paul Ebersold. Spacehog were largely inactive from 2001 until July 2006 when they reformed to play Craggs’ birthday party. The party served as a catalyst for recording their fourth studio LP; ‘As It Is on Earth’ again with Goggin and released in 2013. In 2024 the band contributed to the Grammy nominated soundtrack to ‘Guardians Of The Galaxy 3’. And now after this long ride the band has decided to saddle up once again…. British dance-rock quintet EMF formed in Cinderford, England in October 1989. All five original members were veterans of the local music scene before founding EMF, whose name supposedly stood for “Epsom Mad Funkers" (although it was widely speculated that the initials instead represented "Ecstasy Mother Fuckers"). Within two months of formation, the group played its first gig; after unearthing a Casio sampler and sequencer in a local thrift shop, a light techno element was added to their rock-oriented sound. Their debut album, "SCHUBERT DIP," was released in May 1991. It was certified platinum (over a million copies sold) in the US in September 1991. It had reached a peak chart position of #3 in the UK and #12 in the US, as well as finishing the year at #57 overall. By the end of 1991, their infectious debut single “Unbelievable” had conquered the charts on both sides of the Atlantic, hitting #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #3 in the UK. The single was certified gold (over 500,000 copies sold) in the US in May 1991. The song was in such heavy rotation for most of the year in America, that it finished as the #6 single overall for the year.
