The C Band formerly known as Espinas, is a Nick Schinder’s project that has involved many different musicians from its origin, in Buenos Aires, Argentina, 1999.

The C Band achieves the first place of the 2nd Rock Festival of the Lanus National University. They have frequently performed in well reputed places of the city such as The Cavern Club, Hard Rock Café, Hooters, Premier Theatre and many others, even in the rest of the country. By the end of the year, they get to be one of the 20 finalists of the 1st Iberoamerican Contest of Internet Music, organized by Universal, between 2700 participants from all Latin America, Spain and even U.S.A. In March 2001, this band releases its first LP : Espinas de Este Tamaño (Thorns of This Size), featuring covers and originals. During these years, they share stage with some of the greatest Argentinean musicians, such as Charly Garcia, Pedro Aznar, or Fabiana Cantilo.

The C Band moves to Barcelona, Spain in 2002, where they usually played at many historical music places of the city, such as Kennedy, London Pub, La Ruta dels Elefants, el Forum or Maremagnum. On 2003 they reach the semi-finals of the Demo Project organized by the International Festival of Benicassim 2003, one of the greatest in the pop, electro and indie scene in continental Europe. On the same year, The C Band produces its second album, Home, which begins to define the sound of the band: an unclassifiable pop, post rock, electro and world music blend, heterodox material and exquisite vocals.

The C Band has moved to London and released its fourth studio album, "Think Loud" in march 2007, which represents a complete twist in the sound of the band: a return to their rock roots, but also, a record that finally registers the energy of their breathtaking live performances.
