Supergrass

Supergrass was a British alternative rock band from Oxford. The band consisted of vocalist / guitarist Gaz Coombes, keyboardist Rob Coombes, bassist Mickey Quinn and drummer Danny Goffey. The sound of the band was audibly influenced by bands like The Jam and The Buzzcocks, but also madness and Slade . On 12 April 2010 the group announced that they disbanded. Musical and creative differences were the cause of the fracture. 4 farewell concerts were given. The final concert took place on June 11, 2010 in Paris . ==[Biography  edit ] == Gaz Coombes and Danny Goffey begin at an early age in The Jennifers which they release a single in 1992 and played in Amsterdam. After the breakup of the band go on with Mickey Quinn called Supergrass.

In the summer of 1994 sees the debut single Caught By The Fuzz; it's about Coombes' clash with the police for drug possession. In early 1995follow Mansize Rooster and Lenny, and in May of the Britpop Year appears the critically acclaimed debut album I Should Coco . The third single is Alright, thanks a funny video, a big summer hit.

Supergrass receive offers for commercials and by Steven Spielberg asked for a television a la The Monkees ; these are all repulsed because they have nothing to do with music.

Hence, the second album from 1997 called In It For The Money. The reviews are again positive and it delivers singles as Richard III, Sun Hits The Sky and Late In The Day, but success is not matched Alright, pulls In It For The Money still platinum in England,
