The Franchise is a Washington, D.C.-based rock band. Their music has been described as "geek rock", delving into the harrowing world of pet monitoring devices, comic books, and Middle Eastern food. Influences include what used to be called “college rock,” alternative rock, and New Wave—things along the lines of Talking Heads, R.E.M., They Might Be Giants, U2, The Cure, XTC, Cake, early The Police. Patrick Nolan played drums in the Jazz band ''Kurds and Whey'' from 1991–1993, and then released a solo album, ''Gone Astray'' in 2003. David played guitar in the rock band ''The Sunmasons'' from 1989–1992, and released one cassette, ''It's OK, I'm with the BAND'' in 1991. He then went on to sing in the a cappella group ''Makela'' along with Jerry Marzouk. Noah and Jackson were both singers in the Spizzwinks(?). Patrick and David started playing together in 2003, and in 2004 invited Jerry to join them as a keyboard player. They then asked their friend Anna London to join them as she learned to play bass. ==Demolition== Shortly after forming, they recorded ''Demolition'' at Hit & Run Studios in Gaithersburg, Maryland. ''Demolition'' had three original songs, ''Aliyah L'Regel'', ''Post-Apocalyptic Love Song'', and ''Cyrano'', and a cover of The Police song ''Message in a Bottle''. Cover art for ''Demolition'' was created by Patrick. Shortly after releasing ''Demolition'', Noah Kaye joined the band after attending one of the early performances. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Franchise」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
