THE BAND back

Gloire Carton is a band based in Athens, Greece. Glory - PoorMargo - Thieves - God are currently the members of the band.

The story

Glory was a member of the band Couch Potatoes until their dissolution in 2007. After that, she decided to start a solo project of hers, going by the moniker “GloryBox”. Soon enough, she had her first works uploaded in her myspace webpage and organizing her first solo gigs. In 2008 she compiled some of her recordings into CD, thus making it an album of her works named Unzip My Ventilated View.

Near the end of 2009 she dropped the “GloryBox” moniker and adopted the present naming of “Gloire Carton”.

In her first live show performances she was always supported by her friendly session members. Nalyssa Green and Tonti Prodnic are the most recognized.

On July 2010, Gloire Carton released their second album Stop poking my balloon.From now on Gloire Carton won’t be a solo project but a band.In this album Thieves(bass) and PoorMargo(keys) contributed.With this line up they performed live several times around Athens. A couple of months ago Tonti Prodnic(on the drums) joined the band. But due to a health problem we couldn't play together anymore.

we are working on new stuff at the moment...

Sunday Tapes

Feb 12, 2012

A few weeks ago,on a cloudy Sunday, Nikos Triantafyllou (Sonic Playground) invited us for coffee and a recording session at his lovely studio. Nikos decided to record unsigned bands,who also appeal to his personal taste, and upload these recordings -named as "Sunday Tapes", at www.ough.gr . An actual tape came out of this session,where all is live and alive :).
We are very excited to have participated in this project and also happy that Litsa,our former drummer, took part too. Special thanks to Nikos and Iraklis for their guidance and attention!
Two of our new songs make their first recorded appearance on this tape, "Dig" and "Rainbows". Click here to listen (and download).
