XTC
GroupeBiographie
XTC est un groupe de new wave britannique, originaire de Swindon, en Angleterre. Après plus de vingt ans de carrière et plus d’une douzaine d’albums, XTC reste surtout connu du grand public français pour le titre Making Plans for Nigel. Leurs deux derniers albums Apple and Venus Vol.1 et Wasp Star – Apple and Venus Vol.2 bénéficieront d’ailleurs d’un excellent accueil de la critique spécialisée lors de leurs sorties.
Formé en 1972 à Swindon, XTC groupe majeur de la pop anglaise est signé par le label Virgin Records en 1977. Sa formation originale se compose d’Andy Partridge – guitariste chanteur, Colin Moulding – bassiste chanteur, Terry Chambers – batteur et Barry Andrews – claviériste et saxophoniste. Comme The Police, XTC bénéficie pour émerger de l’explosion du mouvement Punk et de la frénésie des labels de l’époque dans la quête de nouvelles stars.
