DEAN
From HtownWiki
D.E.A.N. allegedly stood for Douglas Ewan's A Nob, but other explanations were normally given to prevent social conflict and impacts on airplay - Douglas being a well-known nob on the Contact 89FM dial at the time.
Dean's first release was the song Unfortunate Flux on the 1995 compilation The Fridge. They have released two albums, 24 Strings, 4 Tracks and an Attitude in 1996, and Battle Truck in 1999.
The band went under the pseudonyms Andrew Dean, Scott Dean, Byron Dean, Garry Dean and Casio T. Dean, the latter a nice retro drum machine. The other four members played guitar. By the release of the song Jo from Truebliss on 2002's Zero.one compilation, Scott and Byron Dean had been replaced by Giuseppe Dean and Andrea Dean.
