TRIBECA are the original Manchester Cyberband. A sparkling mixture of sampled beats, bleeps and breaks with live guitars, drums + bass and topped with a light dusting of exquisite pop vocals. The band consists of Gaynor Black and Maria O'Hare on vocals, Phil Birchenall on guitars and samplers, Tom Chapman on bass, Phil Rainey on guitars and Frank Staiger on drums and percussion. One listen to the sublime piece of heaven that is ALWAYS ASK - the perfect song to fall out of love to, and you'll be hooked. 'The new wave of freshly innovative Manchester bands, such as Badly Drawn Boy, Tribeca, Doves...' Pete Mitchell / Geoff Lloyd - Virgin Radio 'Swoonsome trip-pop!' Dan Martin - Manchester Evening News
2003 saw the release of the long awaited new single from TRIBECA - WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? It was the band's first release in almost two years and features new singer Gaynor Black on vocals and was produced by TRIBECA and MY MATE MARK with additional production from Martin Moscrop from ACR.WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? is a three and a half minute rush of pop that mixes the usual dirty beats and flicks a nod at New Order and The Smiths. It's backed with the Ithaca remix of CITY BREEZE and the Bulletproof reconstruction of ASTROCHILD.
