There are at least two artists named Matinee: 1. A short-lived Leeds based band. 2. A Greek two-piece experimental / post-punk band. 1. Short lived Leeds based two-piece, formed from the ashes of Trampoline and featuring James Heward and Daniel Austin (later of Horton Parks). 2.OK, there's this guy, John. He reads a lot, writes a lot, loves art, but he's nothing much of a musician. He lives in Ioannina. And there's this other guy, Panagiotis. He grow up between speakers, microphones, mixers, guitars and computers in Patras. And he is a musician. They met in a cafe in Ioannina, in 2006, where the first guy works. And so, after a few weeks the idea of the Matinee started taking place. Putting together our much diversive (and sometimes oppossite) influences, and with true love for music, experimentation and willingness to accept each others opinion and personal taste we undertook this personal task to mix thetrical, gothic, schizophrenic lyrics and bass riffs, with electro music, synths and jagged, post-punk guitar riffs. We will get to this new place. We write everything together. We are tonights Matinee... http://www.myspace.com/childrensmatinee
