Jack Figgis (drums, blips, bloops & chirps) and Gordon Mcdougal (guitars, thonks & bleatings) met at Duncan of Jordonstone College of Art in Dundee in the late 90’s, the duo have recently been playing to audiences of hundreds in Scotland ( at The New Stereo, Glasgow), performing live on radio (www.subcity.org), prepping their new album for 2008 and generally kicking up a storm. Vars are breaking the mould of classic 4 piece band, the minimalist element of a duo invites more urgency and less room for mistakes. They have to rely on sonic communication of the highest order when performing.
