The Datsuns are a 4 piece band from New Zealand, Cambridge. After winning band battles and recruiting Christian as lead guitar player they
founded their own label "Hell Squad Records" in 1997, on which their first singles appear. Famous for their amazing live shows, they support The
White Stripes on a tour through the USA in 2002, as well as The Hellacopters or recently Velvet Revolver. In London they play a show for John
Peel and gain a lot of attention, resulting in their first record deal with the label V2, which is only responsible for marketing. In October 2002 they
finally release their selftitled first album. An album sounding like traditional, classic, 70s rock. Rock'n'roll at it's best with good guitar riffs, lyrics
about women and great guitar solos. A cover story in British NME later, they are the "next big thing" in Britain.
After some touring they record and release their second album, "Outta Sight - Outta Mind", produced by John Paul Jones, the bass player of Led
Zeppelin, in the year 2004. « hide |
