Depo

Depo was an indie rock four piece band from Rīga, Latvia founded by Krišjānis Daugulis, Mārtiņš Links, Juris Tipa and Edgars Liljē in 2000. The band were influenced by Joy Division and the Strokes. On June 1st 2002 they released their first CD, a 7 song EP "Alepo" (recorded in "Tornis" studio) before splitting up in the same year. The group also pertormed an acoustic set on a street corner in Rīga.

Links To Peel
The group achieved attention from John Peel in 2002 who played two of their tracks from their only release. Peel didn't know what was the band's name on his show from 26 June 2002, whether it was Depo or Alepo (the EP's name) on the front sleeve. Peel played another track from the group on 01 August 2002 and even mentioned that someone told him the band's name, but he had forgotten it. The group are the only Latvian artist to be played on Peel's show.
