If that surname sounds familiar, let me explain. Rob Snarski is possibly better known as the singer of The Blackeyed Susans and SnarskiCircusLindyBand and Mark Snarski was the singer-songwriter of The Jackson Code. The brothers considered by those in the know to possess the richest voices since Scott Walker wandered into the recording studio and sang “The Sun Ain’t Gonna Shine Anymore”. In fact when their old pal Dave McComb [lead singer of The Triffids] saw their first band Chad’s Tree perform, he berated the brothers with these kind words – “I hate you guys, your band sounds like Television and you sing like The Walker Brothers, BASTARDS!”.Surprisingly, Waiting For The Bell is the first release recorded under the moniker Snarski vs Snarski. Here Mark sings Rob and Rob sings Mark’s songs ~ from Chad’s Tree to The Jackson Code, Snarski & Luscombe, Nearly Brothers, So-Called Friends and their collected solo works. Included is a version of “Bring Yourself Home To Me”, which was originally recorded by The Jackson Code for The Things You Need and famously covered by Jimmy Little on The Messenger.
Waiting For The Bell creates an all-encompassing atmosphere, one of shadowy beauty, raining pleasures and ragged glories – as the brothers re-visit songs from their early work together in Chad’s Tree, re-imagine each other’s solo works and write together for the first time in decades.
The album was produced by Shane O'Mara at Yikesville and is available now in three format options ~ black 130gm vinyl, CD from robsnarski.com and select record stores and digital download available on BANDCAMP.
Since The Jackson Code’s demise Mark has resided in Spain, wandered The Camino and released several solo records. Rob has been busy writing for his solo releases and with Lindy Morrison for SnarskiCircusLindyBand.
2025 will see Mark return for another bout of Snarski vs Snarski live ~ with the brothers both delving deep into their shadowy back catalogues as well as presenting some new material and the songs from Waiting For The Bell.
