The Guild League
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Guild League are an independent pop band from Melbourne, Australia. Led by Tali White, the vocalist from The Lucksmiths, the band was originally formed as a recording project in 2001. This resulted in the album "Private Transport", with contributions from 16 people from Australia and the Pacific USA.
The band has since that time contracted in size, and released its second album "Inner North" in 2004, based around then core members Tali, Cressida Griffith on Cello/bass, and Rodrigo Pintos-Lopez on guitar.
Rodrigo has since left the band, and the line-up at November 2006 is - Tali White (vocals, guitar, keys), Gerry Eeman (guitar), Cressida Griffith (Cello/bass), Phil Collings (drums), Gus Rigby (tenor sax), and Roger Clark (trumpet)
Both Albums are available through the Candle Records label.

[edit] Songwriting
Tali White is the main songwriter for the band, writing all lyrics. Music is written by Tali alone, or in collaboration with Rodrigo Pintos-Lopez in the past, or more recently with Gerry Eeman and Phil Collings.
The Guild League's music can be broadly categorized as independent style pop, although their recorded output stretches from a rap style (Siamese Couplets), to a capella (Where are you now?)
