Very little is known about Turpus Cauza other then Kevin, Grant and Josh came from an earlier band called Hollowman Rusk. The only other information is gathered from a local 'zine called Entertainment Brantford. Entertainment Brantford?, Issue #1, January 1996 mentioned that the band had one track on the Brantford Vibe CD called "Down."
Entertainment Brantford?, Issue #2, March 1996 mentions that they are on a list of confirmed entries, as of February 10th 1996 for a battle of the bands at the Turnaround on Colborne Street in downtown Brantford. Which would later turn out to be a bogus contest.

Brantford New Artist Showcase Making Sunday Night Exciting
by Dan Walker
Poor Folks Deli on Market Street is best know for its blues music, but the bar is heading in a new direction on Sunday nights. The Brantford New Artist Showcase features a new local band every weekend and gives young artists the chance to practice their stuff and earn a few fans. The bar wants to help bands get some exposure, and so far the Showcase has provided some excellent entertainment... April 21 saw the Virus 3 hastily cover for Turpus Cauza, who cancelled at the last second....

In Other News...
By Dan Walker
Soundzone Productions latest event was shut down due to a court order against them. The show, which was to be held June 14 in Vanessa featuring a number of bands, was killed only the day before. The official reason given was that the land was not zoned for such a show, and with the threat of a hefty fine the company had to pull out. Soundzone will now focus on a really big bash in August, probably at the Harlequin Club here in Brantford...
