Mainstream (band)


Mainstream were an English shoegazer band, briefly famous in the late 1990s. They were formed by Mewton, Hartnell and Neill. Later they were joined by Peter Mullaney and later still Mark James Aviss. After performing several successful gigs they attracted label interest. Immediately prior to signing with Nude Records, Peter Mullaney for various reasons departed, later to be replaced with Greg Cook. Signed to Suede's label Nude Records in early 1995 and produced one album in 1998.
The band comprised Anthony Neale , James Hartnell, Conrad Mewton, Greg Cook and Mark James Aviss .
Despite having been renowned for their live performances, the album failed to chart anywhere and the group split up shortly afterwards.
However the album appears to be still in print and selling. Also in 2006, a Myspace page was created for the band, although this only contains information about their prior career, and does not indicate either that the band have reformed or are planning to do so.
