History
Nick Krgovich and Larissa Loyva started playing together in 1999, and were later joined by Justin Kellam and Julia Chirka to form a foursome.[4] Their debut release, When It's Dark and It's Summer, was recorded at and co-released by Hive Studios.[4]
The band worked with many prominent Vancouver musicians including Veda Hille, Ida Nilsen, Torston Muller and members of The Beans, Black Mountain, Jerk With a Bomb, Gaze and Standing Wave.
Their second album The Den was recorded over five months in 2003 by Colin Stewart (Destroyer, Hot Hot Heat, Radio Berlin) at The Western Front and The Hive studios. Arranged with keyboards, horns, strings and back-up vocals, the quartet's orchestral lo-fi pop is reminiscent of Rufus Wainwright.
P:ano's third album Brigadoon was released in April 2005.[5] The album appeared on the !earshot Top 200 chart that June.[6] Their fourth album Ghost Pirates Without Heads followed that October.
P:ano called it quits when Larissa Loyva departed. The remaining three formed No Kids in 2008. Other side projects include Burquitlam Plaza, Duplex!, BORING, Gigi and To Bad Catholics.
