Ceramic Hello: is a minimal wave band formed in 1980 in Burlington, ON, Canada. The band was founded by Brett Wickens shortly after he left the Spoons. The first incarnation of the group was called "The Jovial Foresters", which made one live performance, and produced a few unreleased songs in a prog rock style. Wickens then decided to record a proper album of his own minimalist / techno material, and recruited Roger Humphreys to compose short 'bridge' instrumentals between his longer tracks.
