Winnebago Deal


Winnebago Deal are a rock band from Oxford, United Kingdom. They formed in the late 1990s at Bartholomew School in Eynsham, with Ben Perrier and Ben Thomas. Perrier and Thomas decided to perform as a duo after ejecting some early members. Their sound has been compared to Queens of the Stone Age and the bands who recorded for Sub Pop Records. Winnebago Deal generated strong support from many appearances at Oxford's Zodiac club, eventually supporting Fugazi at London's Forum. Their first release was the EP Plata O Plomo in 2003. They were nominated as Best British Newcomer at that year's Kerrang! awards.
The band then signed with Double Dragon Music, and recorded their debut album Dead Gone with producer Jack Endino. The album was released in September 2004 and was positively reviewed by Drowned in Sound. During this period, Perrier and Thomas toured with the band Mondo Generator (headed by Nick Oliveri
