Kirsten (the one with cat eye glasses and a perpetual cigarette) and Heather
Lynn (the one with the wig collection and amazing ass) both sing and play Casio
keyboards. For such a simple formula, the Capricorns write surprisingly
intricate songs. Their topics range from teenage boyfriends to revenge to
fashion tips.
The Capricorns have been together since spring of 2000, when both Kirsten and
Heather Lynn were living in the small town of Grayslake, IL, where there is
little to do besides stalk boys and hang out at the Tastee Freeze. After
playing a very eclectic array of shows (high school graduation parties, pool
parties, community college open mic forums), the bandÆs popularity immediately
spread.
Because of pressure from their diehard fans, who wanted to be able to listen to
the Capricorns' catchy party tunes in their bedrooms at home, the girls decided
to record. They went to Cincinnati, Ohio and made their debut album, "The
Capricorns Are Gonna Get You". On their own label, they released the 12 song
cassette, having no idea how Capricorn-Fever would sweep the nation. At a New
Years Eve party in Washington, D.C., Paroxysm Records bigwig Jason Barnett heard
the record and knew that the Capricorns would be the next big thing. He
immediately contacted them and convinced them to sign with him. The rest is
history.
