About Me

giant wombats was a band started in Utrecht NL back in Fall 2002 by two weirdos, a spaniard and an italian, daniel and francesco.They went on rehearsing in Francesco's living room for a while with the help of local weed and daniel's drawings fixed on the walls. They played bass and guitar. During a party in rijnlaand Maarten, a dutch weirdo, came up with the name. In January gary briefly joined the band on the drums and they rehearsed for the first time in a real practice facility, shortly after Dylan took over on the drums and Sarah joined too playing guitar and singing. After a while Francesco met Neil trhough Pablo and he joined the band too. They recorded some tunes on dylan 4 trax, had a gig around may 19th at the Oude Pothuys in the Oudegracht and then dylan and daniel left for good the country. In June we jammed with Sarah's back then boyfriend on the drums, but Gabriele was who really joined the band on the drums back then, and some more songs were recorded on neil's 8 trax, including special guest Jake, Manu, Anita and Terry but the end of the experience was drawing nearer. at the end of june a couple of tunes were recorded ina real studio in den Haag by Francesco Neil and Dylan.Thats' it... width="425" height="350" ..
