about
The Cinematic Underground are an alternative rock group, with members from the UK and the U.S.. Their debut album, Annasthesia, is a "concept narrative" about risk and escape which follows two main characters through two days in an un-named city. Fronted by Nathan Johnson, the group is more of an artistic collective than a band, with revolving members of family and friends from both sides of the Atlantic. Various members contributed to the junk-yard score for the award-winning film Brick in 2004 and in the autumn of 2005, the group relocated to Boston, Massachusetts in order to mount a year-long live touring production of the Annasthesia show. The show mixes projected images from Zachary Johnson's Annasthesia graphic novella with film, samples and a live concert. The present line-up consists of: * Nathan Johnson: writer, director, lead vocals, rhythm guitar * Zachary Johnson: drums, illustration * Bethany Johnson: harmony vocals * Marke Johnson: guitar, graphic design, stage design, architecture * Kimberly Johnson: director of materials & business management * China Kent: keyboards, pianos, talkbox * Seth Kent: technical management, instrument repair and creation * Chris Mears: guitar, metallophone, samples * Chris Pedley: bass guitar * Kate Scott: photographer * Chris Jacobs: manager * Anna Chesley: Fan liaison * Joe Lanman: web designer, visuals Discography: * Annasthesia (2003) * Brick Original Motion Picture Score (2004), Composed by Nathan Johnson with The Cinematic
