The Egg (band)
The Egg are a British electronic dance music band, consisting of Ned Scott (keyboards), Maff Scott (drums), Paul Marshall (bass) and Matt White (lead guitar). History. Founded in the early 1990s in Oxford, England, the Egg released its first EP "Shopping" (1995) on the independent record label, Cup of Tea Records. Having been signed by China Records, in 1996 the band released the album "Albumen" in the United States on Discovery Records in 1997. In 1998, the follow-up album, "Travelator", was released, produced by Tim Holmes of Death in Vegas. In 2000, the group recorded the  theme tune to the ITV series, "At Home with the Braithwaites". Following "Travelator", the Egg began exploring the new directions. Following their "Mellowmania EP" in 2002, they were signed by Bar de Lune Records, a subsidiary of Beechwood Music. Beechwood folded the following year just before a return with their new album, "Forwards", (produced by Benji Vaughan) and subsequently released on Squarepeg Records in 2004. The single "Walking Away" (featuring Sophie Barker of Zero 7) was released in 2005, and further remixes commissioned by licensees. This became a crossover hit, and spawned the bootleg by David Guetta, "Love Don't  Let Me Go (Walking Away)", to reach #3 in the UK Singles Chart in August 2006. In 2006, the Egg played at The Big Chill, Bestival, Glastonbury, and other venues across Europe. The following year saw more UK music festivals appearances. In 2007 the band toured Australia and Brazil for the first time playing most major cities in each. In 2008 the Egg contributed the song "Trails and Tribulations" to the "Songs for Survival" Survival International charity album, and later in the year they played at Camp Bisco 7 in Mariaville, NY. They also toured the U.S. extensively in 2008 , 2009, and 2010.
