Joint State is a Three-piece band from Cape Town, South Africa. The band have started making their mark on the South African and International Rock scene- with a big repertoire of original songs and re-worked covers brought to life through great live shows with hordes of energy. The members of Joint State are Chris Munro (lead guitars & vocals), Martin Munro (drums & percussion), Stephan Lenhoff (Bass Guitar). The band began officially in late 2003 - 2007. Reformed in late 2008. The current line-up evolved from a number of other SA bands including Mills Park, Solemn, that had recorded a few demos and EP’s, but never had any real commercial success. Then the Munro Brothers, Chris and Martin, decided to form a new band, together with their friend and bass guitarist Stephan Lenhoff. A few local gigs followed, before the band recorded a few demos at the City Varsity campus studios in Gardens, Cape Town while Chris studied sound engineering. The band then began building a strong following locally and played many gigs around Strand, Stellenbosch, Somerset West and Cape Town. The band recorded their debut album in Cape Town, 2003. The album was titled "Nothing Works Like Water" and contained 12 tracks in total, which featured 2 re-worked covers and 9 original compositions. Marketing was done independently and the album is still available online through numerous retailers.
