What would happen if you put members from Tool, Faith No More and Primus in a band with Frank Zappa & Tom Waits?
Cloon started out in 2002 as an instrumental project containing current members Maarten, Philippe, and Servaas. A 4th Cloon member joins the ranks in February 2004. Tom Claus takes his place behind the microphone and appears to be the missing part of the puzzle, performing as an excellent story-teller and vocalist, but above all a genius with a master's degree in crazy freaked-out frontmanship. New songs were written and a new Cloon was born …
A first demo was recorded in the spring of 2004, containing 3 songs: "Judas", "A Donut the Size of a Wheel" and "Be Amazing". This demo-CD received unanimously positive reviews from national and international music press!
In november 2006, Cloon released a 5-track limited edition EP, getting them on stages in Belgium, England, The Netherlands and Germany.
In October 2007, Cloon supports Swedish multi platinum act Clawfinger on their European tour, performing in front of crowds from 500 to 2.000 people, in Germany, Switzerland and Austria.
After 3 years of intense writing and recording, the band finishes the recordings for their first full length album "Mostly Harmless" in 2010. This longawaited firstborn will be available late April 2011 on Dying Giraffe / V2Munich in the Benelux and on all digital platforms around the globe.
