Quote:
Their debut album, Morningwood, was produced by Gil Norton, known for his work with Pixies, the Foo Fighters, and Echo and the Bunnymen. Singles from the album include "Nth Degree," "Jetsetter" and "New York Girls." They toured with Mindless Self Indulgence, Head Automatica, Gang of Four, Kasabian, and The Sounds on various legs of their US gigs in 2006.
Their song "Nth Degree" has been used in several Mercury vehicle commercials, featuring actress Jill Wagner. Another of their songs, "Nü Rock," was used in the video games Burnout Revenge, SSX On Tour, Thrillville. A demo version of a Morningwood song called "Warrior" was used in a Payless shoes TV spot. Morningwood received national exposure in the United States as a finalist in December 2005 Yahoo.com's Who's Next. They appeared three times on The Late Show with David Letterman, twice on Last Call with Carson Daly, once on The Tonight Show, once on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, and twice on CD USA. They played live at the MTV Studios at midnight for the Human Giant 24 hour marathon. In 2008 the song "New York Girls" was used in the popular Sex and the City movie.
Morningwood's lead singer Chantal Claret is famous for commanding audience members to take off their clothes, typically when the song "Take Off Your Clothes" is performed. A brave spectator will often climb atop the stage and strip.
The band is finishing up work on a new album.[5]
Morningwood's popular song "Best of Me" is featured as the theme song for Vh1's Daisy of Love.
