Music is mostly original hard rock, with the odd cover from Queens Of The Stone Age & Bad Religion.
At the beginning of 2004 A. Fitzgerald and W. Stubbs decided to get a band together to perform at the Nirvana Tribute Gig at local Invercargill venue Tillermans. This wasn’t an easy task, but with Baz T. on bass and E-L Sparks on drums, they managed to knock together three Nirvana songs and three of Stubbs’ originals to play a half hour set that ended on 'Heart Shaped Box' just as most of the audience was beginning to arrive. Luckily, one audience member who saw the whole set, just happened to be a drummer named Jamie Stuck, and was available to replace Sparks when she opted to concentrate on studies instead. The rest of the year saw bass players come and go while only a handful of gigs finished the year off.
2005 saw new hope when auditions began at the start of the study year and Cameron Stevenson was hand picked to play bass. Almost immediately new songs sprang into being and the band became tighter than ever. Many gigs began to come the bands way, including a few in Dunedin (the favourite being with Scurvy Dogs!) as well as supporting Die! Die! Die! on their Invercargill date.
Innominado are currently working on new songs and looking for more gigs outside of Invercargill – there seems to be a diminishing amount of venues interested in live bands within their hometown. This is unfortunate, because there is potential for a vibrant scene that allows all bands no matter what their style, to come together and perform and support each other. Innominado, like other bands, may be forced into looking for gigs elsewhere and returning nothing to the home scene that started them off…
