atlantic cable
(czech republic)
*
Started as solo project of Tyson Cosby formerly of Squall in 2005 and blossomed into a duo with Vedran Tvrtkovic on the drums. The most recent Atlantic Cable resides in landlocked Prague, Czech Republic. Self described they sound like "happy-go-lucky Leonard Cohen mixed with some Skip Spence and a dash of Smog"
(The primary Atlantic Cable lays on the floor of the Atlantic stretching from Ireland to Newfoundland and was the first transatlantic telegraph cable uncoiled from the hull of the steamship The Great Eastern, the largest of her era, in 1866. New York’s City Hall was nearly lost to fire due to the jubilant mayhem in the streets celebrating the first transmission by Queen Victoria. Firefighters were barely able to reach the blaze before it raged out of control. It was while working on a project to increase the transmission capabilities that Thomas Edison accidentally invented the phonograph).
