Start & Complete CD (2011)
About Group songs A big problem with supergroups is that the big artists' demanding outside schedules often result in songs that feel rushed and thrown together. For Start & Complete, the members of About Group embraced this aspect, deliberately limiting their time together to only a day in the studio and enforcing improvisation. Although much of the material was prewritten, the chief songwriter, Hot Chip's Alexis Taylor, kept the songs from the rest of the band until the morning of the recording session at Abbey Road. Being seasoned vets, This Heat's Charles Hayward (drums), Spiritualized's John Coxon (keyboards), and Derek Bailey sideman Pat Thomas (guitar, bass, synth) adapted quite well.

About Group Biography
About Group CD discography In 2009, This Heat drummer Charles Hayward recruited Hot Chip's Alexis Taylor, Spring Heel Jack's John Coxon, and Derek Bailey collaborator Pat Thomas for an album of improvisatory music. Credited to Hayward/Coxon/Thomas/Taylor, their album About would appear on the Treader label that same year. A handful of shows would follow, including appearances at Glastonbury and Ornette Coleman's Meltdown Festival. In 2010, the quartet reassembled, took on the name Artist, and recorded Start and Complete, an album featuring some more traditional song structures. This second effort was released by the Domino label in early 2011. ~ David Jeffries
