Steve Askew - Industrial Salt

Industrial Salt

Steve collaborated with Industrial Salt from 2004.

Hayley Bonnick of Industrial Salt had been taking guitar lessons from Steve Askew when she approached him for help recording a song which needed arranging and recording. After Steve played the track to Kajagoogoo bass player Nick Beggs, a band was formed. Steve and Nick held auditions at music schools across the country and Alex Stamp was found and brought into the band.

Their first single was 'Sugar Bomb Baby', written ten years earlier by Steve Askew and Nick Beggs but never used.

Famous quotes containing the words industrial and/or salt:

    Dead power is everywhere among us—in the forest, chopping down the songs; at night in the industrial landscape, wasting and stiffening the new life; in the streets of the city, throwing away the day. We wanted something different for our people: not to find ourselves an old, reactionary republic, full of ghost-fears, the fears of death and the fears of birth. We want something else.
    Muriel Rukeyser (1913–1980)

    The salt person and blasted place
    I furnish with the meat of a fable;
    If the dead starve, their stomachs turn to tumble
    An upright man in the antipodes
    Or spray-based and rock-chested sea:
    Over the past table I repeat this present grace.
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
