The idea of S-BEAR was born after the release of the first SOUTH BOLERO album. Their aim was to link their single musical experiences in order to give life to a thread combining SOUTH BOLERO's electronics, the Francesco M. Mirone acoustic sound and the Z electric sound.
In November 2005 these three lazy bones joined the "Freakout &
Neapolis Festival presents: duel:beat" (Naples / Italy), sharing
the scene with Robert Lippok (To Rococo Rot) and Barbara Morgenstern.
The stage began as a SOUTH BOLERO laptop-set and after it developed
in an audiovisual event with moments of pure electronics and others
of marked post-rock nature, sealing the official start of a new
project: S-BEAR.
We will see, what happens. The music is strange and that likes
the KUGKmusique team. CD is in work and will become a small work
of art . We can tell that now.
