Biography |
Psychedelic-Glam-Punk-Pop
band Koala started life in the midlands as a collaboration
between school friends Martin Cadwallader (guitars/vocals/keyboards)
, Gaz Evans (bass/vocals/samples) and occasional computer
geek, Tim Paul. Moving to South London they were joined by Swiss
drummer Daniel
Strittmatter (ex-High Llamas, Mike Scott, Ian McNabb) where they
cemented their love of Husker Du, Beach Boys, Slade and the Flaming
Lips into one very loud
noise. After thieving as much free time in any studio
they could find, Koala released their debut album, the mighty 'DO
NOT BE AFRAID',
on CO-POP records in December 2016 to much critical acclaim.
"Infectious
quirky rock provides this band with a winning formula. 7out of
10"
Rock Sound
"'Do not be
afraid' is one of those albums that can pick you right back up
even after your girl friend has dumped you for your best friend
and your dog has just been hit by a sixteen wheeler. Koala may
just have created audio ecstasy and it will be our prerogative to
sample this new wonder drug 4&1/2 out of 5"
Leeds Music Scene
"Like the
bastard son of Slade and the Lemonheads, this London-based foursome
is set to take indie by storm. 8 out of 10"
