'Sorry to say, but our greatest ambition was playing a local bar like The Green Room,' says drummer & vocalist Peeps G, 'We were having fun writing songs, learning how to play before we could think about doing a show. Even our first show was nerve wracking. Kevin was the only person in our group who had ever played in front of people. ' Over the next 30 months, Plunt juggled their busy work schedules, expanded into a four piece and recorded whenever the studio had an open day: 'We played a few shows over two years, and at one of them, Brian checked us out and I asked if he wanted to play guitar, knowing that he is a bassist. He said 'yes,' remembers Kevin, 'I thought it was great that we had four people who were not playing their original instruments. It brought a different attitude to the songs. ' And now finally, after 2 years, Plunt is proud to present their debut release via the ultra-cool and newly relocated in Montreal, Bongo Beat Records. Simple, short and savvy, Plunt's debut CD contains 16 songs that clock in at just over 32 minutes. While it fuses a whole range of influences including late 70s NYC punk and 90s indie-rock, the band also lyrically explores neighborhood living, having sex, living with cats & dogs, having more sex, real estate agents, and food, which are all without a doubt, classic songwriting subjects. Special guests include Franco Proietti (Franco Proietti Morph-tet & x-Kobayashi), Josh Geary (x-Kobayashi), Ian Jack (Loft Party), Jon Asencio (Doughboys, Pest 5000, Goa), Phil Batthika, Robbie Morselli, Stéphane Bourbonnais and Peep's cat, which was trained to play the kazoo. About the members: Peeps G - Drums & Vocals. Peeps does not want us to use her real name in fear that her mom will find out she plays in a band. She is also an avid fan of Marky Ramone, The Breeders and You Tube drum tutorials. Most of the songs on the CD are about her cat. Uncle Kevvy - Guitars & keyboards. His mom already knows he's in a band and wishes that someday, he will get a real job. Played keyboards in Rational Youth, Pest 5000 and countless other bands, but is now content working as a freelance recording engineer and music industry hack. Brian Arsenault - Guitars. Better known as the bass player for Strawberry and Squarewaves, 'Little Eddie' joined Plunt during the recording of their debut. Besides being a handyman who can construct his own effect pedals, Brian is adored because he can actually translate and play the musical chaos that revolves in Peep's head. Genevieve Legogo - Former Bassist and Plunt's only casualty. After an Ontario tour in the summer of 2008, she decided the touring life was not for her. And who can blame her?
