1) A defunct four-piece alternative rock band from Bethnal Green, London, UK. They formed in 2005 and broke up in 2010. They were signed to Filthy Lucre and Fleet Street Records. The band have toured with The Bravery, Delays, Editors, Jimmy Eat World and British Sea Power amongst others.
They have also appeared on a co-headline tour of France with The Kooks. They have shared many stages with fellow East-Londoners Boy Kill Boy (hailing from Leytonstone), and Apartment have a song dedicated to their singer, Chris Peck, called "My Brother Chris", which also happened to be their first single under Filthy Lucre. They released their debut album, The Dreamer Evasive, in 2007. The song from the album "Fall Into Place" was also selected to be in the game FIFA 08, and is also available on the game's OST. Members David Caggiari (vocals) Tom Gillet (bass guitar) Davide DeSantis (guitar) Liam Fletcher (drums) The band came together in Bethnal Green in East London, sharing loves of influential acts like Blonde Redhead, Velvet Underground, Jeff Buckley, David Bowie, The Associates and Bruce Springsteen.
Apartment released two early singles on Fierce Panda, "Everyone Says I'm Paranoid" and "Patience Is Proving". After these limited releases, things went quiet, as the band recorded their debut album The Dreamer Evasive, as well as setting up Fleet Street Records. Apartment went on to release 7 singles and an album, playing all over Europe and the USA, featuring at SXSW in Texas, CMJ in New York, Musexpo in Los Angeles and supporting the likes of The Killers, The Bravery, Happy Mondays, British Sea Power, Editors, Jimmy Eat World, Infadels, Towers of London, and a French co-headline tour with The Kooks. Apartment received various critical acclaim for their debut album The Dreamer Evasive, including one of the 'Best Albums of 2007' by Newsweek magazine and one of the 'Best Pop Songs of 2007' by The Times with the song "Fall into Place". 2) A Chicago, IL USA 'dark cabaret' band, formed in 1997. Apartment helped to pioneer part of the queer dark cabaret movement in Chicago. It was started by Christine Heinisch (now of Gamma Like Very Ultra) and Caila Lipovsky.
The schizoid and absurdist lyrics of Caila Lipovsky combined with the off kilter, quick change, circus like arrangements of the band and Christine Heinisch made for a strange theatrical and melodramatic experience. The band played amongst the art punk and burlesque scenes of Chicago's north side and thrived there for several years. The band recorded one album, entitled The Girl is Not Right. Other recordings are slated for release. The first EP was entitled "Apartment" and was released on Baxter Records, and includes the original recording of "Pipsqueak" The band also recorded 3 live CD's from Chicago's Hot House, Double Door and WZRD. A factoid- the recording of "In The Night" was recorded in one take on Halloween at Chicago Recording Company. There were a couple of minutes of tape left during the recording session.
James Wallace (who wrote and arranged the music for the song) talked the other members into recording it, it was never meant to be on the release of "The Girl is not Right".
