Four lads from four different country making up one band.
Now that is a KILLER! The Curious Incident (UK) is the Alternative Pop
embodiment of that roller coaster feeling in your belly! A band of
multinationals wearing their hearts on their sleeves; their music has a little
RHCP, a little Sting, a little Winehouse, a little Bruno Mars and a lot more
thrown in depending on the weather. They have supported some of their heroes
including The Zombies and have been lucky enough to play in the UK, Switzerland
and Canada. The band had their first SA tour in 2012. Good news for SA fans is
that The Curious Incident will be back here in November/December to introduce
their new EP: “Penny Lonesome”. Their wickedly tongue in cheek single - “Money”
- will be going out to SA radio in the next few days. The EP will consist of 4
news songs, as well as some bonus tracks: Money: Tongue-in-cheek teasing of the
lyrics of some of the band`s favourite modern artists Aloe Blacc and Sam Smith;
The Hunt: An eclectic and somewhat unexpected style mash with a positive
blow-out chorus best suited to a Caribbean jump around; Diane: A Tale of
youthful love in a school-time crush that's bloomed into an Elvis-approved
marriage; Please Don't Say: Perfect for telling that special someone (lover,
friend, politician) to shut the hell up. The band consist of:
Cavey Roberts @caveyroberts
(vocals & guitar) - representing South Africa and The
Netherlands
Mirko Piconese @mirkopiconese
(lead guitar) - representing Italy
Dan Bowery @dmbowery
(bass) - representing England
Diaz Meidiawan @curiousdiaz13
(drums) - representing Indonesia
When not writing and playing Cavey is a Jack The Ripper tour
guide and sober bar crawl host; Diaz makes sure that the Indonesian Airforce
has planes to fly; Dan equally provokes and prevents riots near Oval Cricket
ground and Mirko mashes up Flight of the Bumble Bee with Iron Maiden on
classical guitar. See them live on 25 November at Aandklas in Stellenbosch; 29
November at Mystic Boer in Bloemfontein; 5 December at Arcade Empire in
Pretoria w/ Lark; 6 December at Rumours in Johannesburg w/ Lark; and on 13
December in Cape Town (venue still to be confirmed).
