Scotland Yard is a pop rock group from Los Angeles, California: Scotland Yard began when Chris Hill began demoing songs in 1989 for a female fronted new wave pop group. In 1991 Kim Cahill responded to an out of date ad for a singer in a local industry trade magazine. The edgy pop rock sound from the duo would catch an ear in the Los Angeles and Orange county music scene. ==Career== The addition of a live band and constant touring would break the band out of its Orange County home turf. Numerous compilations and college radio air play helped the band build a devoted following across the USA and overseas. Local live shows featured casino nights with play money, food and prizes, raffle giveaways and swag bags for the audiences. The band licensed merchandise for everything from T-shirts to candy bars. After the second CD release, the band's revolving lineup and shifting influences lead to Hill and Cahill parting ways. The group was dissolved in January 2004 after the recording of their third and final studio collaboration. The last single release, "Wake Up", released under Cahill's name, with no promotion met with limited success, and the group ended their label Interpol Records. Notable bands that Scotland Yard opened for are Lenny Kravitz, Lit, Berlin, Missing Persons, Dave Wakling (General Public), Gene Loves Jezabel, John Easdale (Dramarama), and Martha Davis (The Motels). The Band won one of the early contests on www.Garageband.com peaking at #1 in Pop out of 34,000 songs 〔http://www.garageband.com/song?|pe1|S8LTM0LdsaSnZla0YA〕 and were number #1 on Australian radio's "World Underground charts" for more than 365 weeks. The Band's music was also featured on MTV's "Undressed" episode 432 and a Friends episode in Italy. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Scotland Yard (band)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
