Inventors of caledonian space pop;)
cruiser hail from Fife, though in the past some members have came from all over Scotland. Originally a Cowdenbeath studio project, cruiser released an LP Northern Electric on Devil In The Woods records in the USA 2001. Comprising contributions from many travellers to the studio. After which a few sporadic live Scottish dates and demoing followed including some new permanent members. In the US, Northern Electric recieved positive press and heavy college radio play. While over the pond, it was Jockrock's album of the month Dec 2001, and picked to be in Is This Music? magazines top 100 Scottish albums of all time(Sheesh!)
Now mostly a 2 piece of Jamie and Kev, though Matt & Mari still pop in sometimes, as does Kev's girlfriend Erin. cruiser have tried to bring some fun back into their synths without losing touch of a melodic laid back style.
Recently signing a one track license to Some Bizzare for a compilation they plan on releasing, and another compilation track imminent in Japan on Ningendaigaku records, have spurred them on to almost finish a second album after a long wait, and ready to put their scottish synths back on the map, maybe :)
