The Cinematic Underground
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Cinematic Underground are an alternative rock group, with members from the UK and the U.S. Their debut album, Annasthesia, is a "concept narrative" about risk and escape which follows two main characters through two days in an un-named city. Fronted by Nathan Johnson, the group is more of an artistic collective than a band, with revolving members of family and friends from both sides of the Atlantic. Various members contributed to the junk-yard score for the award-winning film Brick in 2004 and in the autumn of 2005, the group relocated to Boston, Massachusetts in order to mount a year-long live touring production of the Annasthesia show. The show mixes projected images from Zachary Johnson's Annasthesia graphic novella with film, samples and a live concert.
The present line-up consists of:
- Nathan Johnson: writer, director, lead vocals, rhythm guitar
- Zachary Johnson: drums, illustration
- Bethany Johnson: harmony vocals
- Marke Johnson: guitar, graphic design, stage design, architecture
- Kimberly Johnson: director of materials & business management
- China Kent: keyboards, pianos, talkbox
