Charlatans Uk - Биография
The Charlatans (known in the United States as The Charlatans UK) are an English indie rock band. The band's line-up currently comprises lead vocalist Tim Burgess, guitarist Mark Collins, bassist Martin Blunt and keyboardist Tony Rogers.
Former members of the band include vocalist Baz Ketley (1989); guitarist Jon Day (Jonathan Baker) (1989–1991); keyboardist Rob Collins (1989–1996), who died in a car accident during recording of their fifth album; and drummer Jon Brookes (1989-2013), who died after being diagnosed with a brain tumour in 2010.
In the UK, all of the band's twelve studio albums have charted in the Top 40 in the UK Albums Chart, three of them being number ones. They have also achieved seventeen Top 30 singles and four Top 10 hits in the UK Singles Chart.
2013 saw the band return to their Big Mushroom studio to begin working on demos for a new album. In May 2013 the Mountain Picnic Blues DVD was released, a documentary about their Tellin' Stories album from its creation in 1997 to the 15th anniversary of the album.
On 13 August 2013 the band's drummer Jon Brookes succumbed to brain cancer, having undergone several operations and treatment for the condition since his diagnosis in 2010.[10] The band themselves paid him tribute in a special event, with Pete Salisbury playing in his place and bands such as Beady Eye, The Vaccines and Manic Street Preachers also joining the bill. Proceeds from the night went to The Brain Tumour Charity, of which The Charlatans are now patrons; the charity have set up The Jon Brookes Fund as a lasting tribute to the drummer.
Tim Burgess confirmed that Brookes's recordings would appear on the band's next album, originally slated for sometime in 2014.
The Charlatans announced details of their twelfth studio album Modern Nature, to be released on the 26th January 2015 on their new label BMG Rights Management. Featuring eleven new tracks (including the recent limited edition 7” Talking In Tones), Modern Nature was produced by The Charlatans and Jim Spencer, and mixed by Craig Silvey. The album features contributions from the band’s temporary drummers Peter Salisbury (of The Verve), Stephen Morris (of New Order) and Gabriel Gurnsey (of Factory Floor), as well as producer Dave Tollan, backing singers Melanie Marshall and Sandra Marvin, strings by Sean O'Hagan and brass courtesy of Jim Paterson from Dexys Midnight Runners.
