biographical info

ultrapuss arose from a unique situation where Graham and Pete were exploring and writing songs as Sinclair C5, when Camille placed an ad on craigslist and got a response from one of their friends, who explained that he was too disorganized to get himself together to play with someone else, but had friends that might need a singer. While this was fortunate for Camille who, with her former band Spiritual Heroine, had once played on the same bill as Perfume Tree, Pete's other group, and felt that anything Pete was involved in would likely be a good fit for her musical interests. It was lucky for her that they were creating "electro" music, which was exactly what she was into. They seemed to think she was ok enough to join them in their electronic play.

Graham has played with "I,Braineater" and "The Widows" (ex-Black Haloes with Billy Hopeless and Siobahn Duvall) and "Filthy Rocket" among other bands.

Pete's former projects/bands include "Perfume Tree", "Veloce", "softOps" - for more on Pete see http://www.minimum.ca/Pete_CV.html

Camille's earlier bands and projects include "swamp.e", "Spiritual Heroine", + "Elusive Project X", as manager, performer, songwriter and producer of Spiritual Heroine's independent CD releases. June 1993 - Sept 2001, as well as bands from early in her 20's that she can't remember the names of. For more on Camille see http://www.spiritualherione.com
