Biography
Atlanteans is a Canadian experimental rock band from Vancouver, Canada featuring Bryce Janssens (guitars/synthesizers/saxophones/vocals) and John Brennan (acoustic/electronic drums).
Bryce Janssens puts a distance between himself and his history as a psychedelic pop/rock writer/producer while maintaining a songwriter's sense of melody and cadence in an improvised form.
John Brennan continues in the tradition of brutal drummers such as Chris Corsano, Greg Saunier and Zach Hill. Brennan has toured extensively throughout Canada, Europe and Asia as a solo performer, as a member of numerous bands and as an improvising collaborator with such artists as William Hooker, Merzbow, Nate Wooley, DJ Olive, Wally Shoup and Drainolith. As well, Brennan curates the eclectic music concert series Destroy Vancouver.
Atlanteans' first self-titled self-released EP draws on their collective experience as sound recordists, improvisers, producers and sonic trippers to create a diverse 23 minutes of subtle streams and raging torrents of noise, whiskey-house blues, jazz, electro and garbage rock. Atlanteans are currently working on their first full-length record expected to be released mid 2015. As well the duo will be touring throughout Europe in May 2015.
