Aqualung - Biography

09-02-2007 00:17 | 0 reaction(s) | add reply
London-based Matt Hales, aka Aqualung, started getting involved in music at a young age while listening to different tracks played at his parents' Southampton record store. At the age of 16, after achieving a scholarship, the enthusiastic young man began attending composition classes. A year later a symphony called Life Cycle became his debut in the classical field. His brother Ben joined him in a band to cover the Police's classic songs. In the early '90s, following studies at London's City University, he became part of the Britpop band Ruth, releasing Harrison on ARC Records in 1999. After leading the 45's (not the Atlanta-based garage rock revival band) and issuing two singles on Universal, Hales started working on Aqualung, an alternative rock project popularized by a VW Beetle TV ad featuring his song "Strange and Beautiful (I'll Put a Spell on You)," which coincided with the release of his self-titled debut in 2002. Several singles followed into the next year as well as his second album, Still Life.
