Having existed since 1994, Tilbury on Cloves never seemed to be a part of the Athens underground, as basically the latter does not even exist. A five- piece at their first steps stormed the gig halls with their often- than-usual appearances. Their first single «And the sea will touch the clouds» was a participation to the «Live Studio» compilation and was released in 1996. Various appearances at local-and-throughout- Greece festivals came to strengthen the mucical approach of the band, until the tragic death of their bassist, in December 1999. From then till today, Tilbury on Cloves appear to be a duo (Chris: vocals, bass, programming/ Vlassis: guitars, electronics, drum machine) with various releases, starting from 2001 with the split 7’’ «Evertry» along with Ma Cherie for Painting (Kontakt Series- Pop Art records) and continuing with their contribution to the compilationsof various Greek fanzines (Sense: «Aggravation», Overdub: «Rollin’», Flux: «Isn’t so far»). In 2003, Tilbury on Cloves were a support act to the legendary Chameleons and in 2004, they released their first self- titledwork (although it consisted of recordings from 2000 and 2001) on the danish label BSBTA alongside with the single «Innocence». Their new work is yet to come.
