the band from utopia

Actually there were two bands called “The Band From Utopia”. The first one was an Australian Zappa-cover band. They started out in January 1994 and were around for about a year. The other one is the U.S. of A. band with ex-Zappa bandmembers.

Chris Quinlan was the percussionist / drummer for The Band from Utopia, the Australian zappa tribute band. Later versions of this band were called Kemerson, Kaked and Karl Karma and The Zappa Instrumentaale.

Here’s part of the story of the Australian one (as told by Chris Quinlan).
