About the Artist
starting out as a rhythm section (bass, drums, guitar, turntable) led by singer song-writer robertson, bullfrog has evolved over the years refining their sound style. the core of the band, mark robertson, peter santiago and eric san (aka kid koala) have been working together since '94. initially averaging over 100 shows a year in the montreal-toronto area they soon became a club favorite. appearing at the montreal jazz festival in '96 along with an opening slot for maceo parker helped change the profile of the band. since, they released 2 independent ep's, recorded for kid koala's "carpal tunnel syndrome" (ninja tune) and toured the "meals on wheels of steel" world tour 2000. in 2001 they released their self titled debut lp on ropeadope records and headlined tours across north america and europe playing high profile festivals and logging 200 shows a year.
