Some History
Capital Models was a short lived (Sept 1979-August 1980) New Wave band from Edinburgh, contemporaries of the likes of Scars, Josef K, TV21, The Freeze, Pure Bears, The Cubs and The Visitors...
In 2012, three members of the band reunited with three aims:-
1. To play covers in and around Edinburgh but "covers with an edge"...
2. To re-record the original band's repertoire...
3. To write and record new Capital Models music...
This site is to promote the first of these aims - you can find more about the original band's history and the reformation over on the main Capital Models site...
David Reilly - Bass, Guitar, Keyboards and Vocals...
Jamie Frain - Guitar, Bass and Vocals
Keith Apter - Drums, Percussion, Guitar and Bass...
In 2013, the trio became a quartet with the addition of Andy Wilson on keyboards, guitar and vocals...
