| Belleruche - Backyard |
|
It all started some time ago, before Modest & Fabulous were even a flicker of confusion in the back of Kathrin's mind, and they were playing very weird sets using guitars and turntables in some of Londons less renowned establishments... Someone, for some reason, offered them a real gig. In a real venue. On a Tuesday. So they needed a name, Belleruche.
It just so happened that Fabulous was working in an establishment where idle browsing through the internet was a welcome relief to staring at the walls. It was whilst engaged in this practice that he stumbled across a website... And what a website. A tribute to one of the finest canine creations to walk on 4 legs. Who had sadly passed away in his native land of New Zealand some years previously, probably whilst wearing a barrel around his neck. A dog of such renown and stature that when the time came to meet his maker it was felt that some sort of lasting digital tribute should be made. Modest & Fabulous had a brief discussion, and came to the same conclusion. Dead dogs don't sue. Belleruche is comprised of Kathrin deBoer who's voice carries the soul of the wind off the cape mixed with the grit of illegal Polynesian rum bars. Ricky Fabulous who clutches a false identity and a forty-year-old guitar and Dj Modest who created a soundsystem and played unlawful hiphop parties in strange woodlands to farmers.
