"When I was about thirteen years old I got my first cassette recorder. A simple portable model with a microphone and a cable you could plug in a radio or record player. The first thing I did was record some shows from the radio station Veronica. On bright green BASF C90 cassettes which I saved for a long time. I recorded pieces of shows like 'Goud van Out' and other shows with oldies from the sixties. For instance "Time of the Season" from The Zombies and "Lies" from The Knickerbockers. I still like to hear this songs and they remind me of my youth. I had the same wonderful feeling when I heard Bourgeois Heroes.
Jason and Elise started Bourgeois Heroes in 2002 after they had bought a guitar and drumset. They soon recorded their first single and for the next five years the duo was mainly a studio project which got on stage just now and then. The released some selfmade CDr's in those years, but their new EP "Come Out & Play with Bourgeois Heroes" is their debut on a regular indie label. Or actually on two labels: Rub Wrongways Records and I Eat Records. This CD from Bourgeois Heroes has just one flaw: it just contains six songs. They are beautiful popsongs with the real feel of the sixties."
