Clare Quilty (group)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Clare Quilty was an American musical group formed in Charlottesville, Virginia, in the United States, in 1994.[1][2] Clare Quilty began as a pop-punk band but later material veered more toward electronica and trip hop. The band is named after a character in Vladimir Nabokov's 1955 novel, Lolita.

The group scored two chart hits in 2003, "Dex Dubious" (DBC Mix) (US #33 Club Play) and "Tremble" (US #44 Club Play).[3]

Clare Quilty's final album, Face the Strange, was produced by Richard Morel and was released by DCide Records in summer 2005. The band retired in January 2006.
