Caisson are an indie rock band based in London, though they draw their members from both hemisperes of the world, Mark being an Aussie, but we forgive him (after all we've got the rugby world cup and the Ashes!).
Caisson rose from the ashes of an old band in early 2005 when Nick and Mark joined Tom, Al and Mac.There followed a period of writing and rehearsing, the boys being determined to make the best songs possible, and be as tight as possible before unleashing their brand of rock onto the music loving public.
They are made up of Nick Obileye- vocals; Tom Perrett- Lead guitar; Mark Wilton- Rhythm Guitar; 'Big' Al Catto- Bass; James 'Mac' MacDonald- Drums.
With influences ranging from heavy metal (that Al sure is a strange little man!) through classic rock (there's no shame in massive Guns and Roses style guitar sometimes, is there....?) through to folk (well, Tom's dad was a bit of a folk musician back in the day, boy sure did play a mean banjo!) the sound of Caisson is an amalgamation of all those songs we listened to as we were growing up, but in the context of the burgeoning revival of British rock, with our own spice.
Now with a repertoire of brand new tunes and melodies, and the rock 'n' roll attitude to match, Caisson are here to make their mark on the landscape of the revival of British rock. With music to get you in the mood for any occassion, we're sure you'll like what you hear, and come marching with us, as the Caisson goes rolling along. Maps...check, plans...check, let the invasion begin!
While waiting for the recording of some demos for the page, enjoy this rough copy of Walls Come Down. More songs of clearer quality follows in a couple of weeks.
