2 Litre Dolby

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

2 Litre Dolby was a Sydney indie rock band. The band began performing live in December 1996, with the line-up of: Leo Mullins (previously of The Welcome Mat) on bass and vocals, Leif Svensson on guitar; Craig "Skull Mc" Peade on drums.

The group appeared on several compilations, before releasing its one and only album, El Caballo Rojo, in 1999 on Half A Cow. The album was recorded and mixed in just 11 days, between August and November 1998, at Charing Cross Studios by Steve Foster, with some assistance provided by Matt Maddock. It was mastered by Festival Records legend William Bowden.

Not long after the album's release, the trio relocated to Melbourne. In March 2001, they travelled to Sydney to play their last ever shows supporting Tweezer - who had reformed to play its last shows proper - over two nights at the Hopetoun in Surry Hills.

Leo Mullins now is part of Melbourne based duo, The Small Knives.
