Danius Kesminas

In the run-up to a tour of Europe starting in July 2003 by his band “The Histrionics”, Danius Kesminas is presenting their latest album “Never Mind the Pollocks”. Among the many Australian cover bands, The Histrionics are the only Concept Art ‘cover band’. For Never Mind the Pollocks, the band has professionally covered famous rock classics, whereby Danius Kesminas – the creative director, lead singer and manager of the band – has added new texts to music remaining true to the original. Partly critical, partly ironic, these texts take up theoretical questions concerning the art world.
