DEATHFIX

Brendan Canty's collaboration with Rich Morel, henceforth to be referred to as Deathfix, started when the two of them were touring in Bob Mould's band, and has flowered under the dim lights of Brendan's toasty warehouse studio. They have been writing songs for two years now. Getting lost in their own devices. More guitars, more everything. Both singing. Lots of love for 1972. Fully analogue attack on the computer. With the addition of Devin Ocampo on drums and Mark Cisneros on bass they are now ready to drive, elevating Deathfix beyond the studio project realm and into a live machine. "Deathfix" will be released on Dischord Records 2/2013. Brendan Canty (Guitar, Vocals) is a founding member and drummer of Fugazi and Rites of Spring, and has been making music, producing records, and making films in Washington DC since 1980. He has produced a lot of records for people like Ted Leo, The Make Up, and the Thermals, and made films for people like Wilco,Eddie Vedder and Death Cab for Cutie. Canty's production company Trixie has a website to get lost in: www.trixiefilm.com/work Rich Morel (Keyboards, vocals) is a singer/songwriter, producer and remixer crafting records for a list of artists including Cyndi Lauper, Pet Shop Boys, New Order, Depeche Mode, Yoko Ono, and The Killers.
