The SUBLIMES

BIOGRAPHY:

Falkirk based act formed in October 1995 from by a name change from The Diesel Kings by Eddie McKenzie (vocals / guitar), Maria Elena Mateo (keyboards / vocals), Grant Paterson (bass) & David Rourke (drums). The Sublimes only ever played a handful of dates (in Spring 1996), despite several months worth of full time reheasals. They released one single, "Slumber" on Glasgow based Automatic Records, picking up rave reviews in The Scotsman, Melody Maker & The List, before splitting in July 1996 as a result of apathy and poverty. McKenzie then formed The International Pop Assassins, recruiting Paterson to play bass.
