Creatures of Habit band on MySpace
History: The Creatures of Habit, named in 1989 by band leader Uku Meri and guitarist Duane LeVasseur, has been going in different guises (as recording or stage bands) continually since. Actually, it is a continuation of the progressive bands that Uku Meri had been a leader of in the past - which would include Accolade (1979-1982) and Human Sushi (1983-1987). The C.O.H. tribute to the Human Sushi era has now been released on CD, as will the Accolade tribute in the near future.
At the time of the naming, it was that members of an earlier group (Accolade) had somehow once again gravitated into doing creative music together - as Creatures of Habit would tend to do, we thought. We raise a symbolic toast to the Mothers of Invention, as well as fusing many types of music in the progressive rock tradition.
Band members have come and gone through the
years, and the C.O.H. have had infrequent live performances of late. With the debut
release "Human Sushi", and anticipated
releases in the near future (the instrumental "Unspoken
Habits" and "Another Take", and the vocal albums
"Accolade" and rock opera "Celestrial Skyway"), the Creatures of Habit
may indeed be sighted on stages once again.
Currently the Creatures of Habit band is:
Uku Meri - synthesizers, percussives, guitars, vocals, miscellaneous
Mark Corregan - guitars, stringed instruments
unofficially, we have drummers and other instrumentalists for live and recording as needed.
work in progress: "Unspoken Habits"
