- Release Notes ------------------------------------------------------------- -
After years of gigging locally, Bitune finally came together in Eschwege,
Germany in early 2001 when Christian Wosimski (guitar) joined Sascha Wiegand
(guitar, vocals), Martin Bartscher (drums, backing vocals) and Thomas
Bartscher (bass) to complete the lineup. A few months later, they came to the
attention of former Skunk Anansie guitarist Ace who was blown away by a demo
they handed to him at a musicians' workshop.
Ace offered to produce the band, and together they began work on crafting new
songs and honing the Bitune sound. The ep they recorded together in 2003
brought Bitune to the attention of German booking agency K.O.K.S. This
brought tours in Germany during 2004 supporting the likes of Billy Talent,
and German punk giants Die Toten Hosen. Having paid their dues, in 2005
Bitune embarked on their own successful headlining tour, laying the
foundations of a German fanbase and playing to 20,000 people at the Hessentag
Festival that Summer.
Ace offered to produce the band, and together with engenier Willi Dammeier
they began work on crafting new songs and honing the Bitune sound in his
famous studio institut fⁿr wohlklangforschung in hanover.
Now signed to UK label Headroom Records, Bitune go into 2007 with an album of
killer tunes and a storming live show that's coming soon to a town near you!
