Aereogramme were a Scottish alternative rock band from Glasgow, formed in 1998, consisting of Craig B. (vocals, guitar), Iain Cook (guitar, programming), Campbell McNeil (bass) and Martin Scott (drums). The band released four studio albums before splitting up in 2007. After the group split, Iain Cook and Craig B. formed another band, The Unwinding Hours, and released a new album on 15 February 2010. Cook also formed in 2011 a new band, Chvrches, together with Martin Doherty and Lauren Mayberry. Martin Scott is currently working with Scottish rock band Biffy Clyro as tour manager and Campbell McNeil is working in the same capacity with The Temper Trap and Chvrches.
Links to Peel[]
The band did three sessions for Peel's show and JP included their album Sleep And Release as his January 2003 (Peel's Record Box). Peel's listeners after his death voted two tracks from the group into the 2004 Festive Fifty. In an interview with Podcart, singer Craig B. acknowledged the influence of Peel:
"John Peel was a huge influence on the way my musical taste developed. The fact that Peel’s show introduced me to Otis Redding highlights just how eclectic his playlist could be but also reminds me of how exciting it was to have an independent voice that might introduce you to something genuinely life changing each week."
