CAPTAIN OF INDUSTRY
Captain of Industry are an experimental rock/pop band from Dayton, Ohio, made up of Nathan Peters ..boards, guitar and vocals; John Lakes on percussion and vocals; Kevin Oldfield on guitar, percussion and electronics; Ian Sperry on bass and vocals; and Tommy Cooper on guitar. Captain of Industry began within a decrepit house in a rough part of East Dayton - though the space was limited, rent was cheap and the neighbors were too stoned to mind the noise. To escape the endless grind working a coffeeshop, a kitchen, a shop floor... one bedroom became a rehearsal space/recording studio, and a year of experimentation and writing between friends culminated with the self-released debut, "!", in Summer 2003.
