Covalent Bond
From Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, Canada, Covalent Bond is made up of singer/guitarist Peter Mullock (32) and drummer Malcolm Rodgers (28). The two have been best friends for years, and they definitely have the connection it takes to hit up the stage in a memorable way. Both are currently living in Halifax, Nova Scotia, and working full-time. They try to find as much time as possible to jam together in order to fullfill their musical dreams.
About The Band Members
Malcolm: Malcolm has a huge liking for goats, one of his dreams being to own a few of them once he settles down. He engages in various sports, some of his favourites including tennis, biking, running and snowboarding. Just last October, Malcolm completed a half-marathon around Lake Ainsley, Cape Breton. Malcolm likes to keep in touch with his cultural Cape Breton side, playing the fiddle whenever he gets a chance. Besides his love for goats, Malcolm also likes to enjoy a cold glass of chocolate milk from time to time. There is never a time that he does not have a 4 Liter jug of this in his fridge at home.
Peter: It is often speculated whether or not the rumour of Peter's toaster fixing ability is actually true or not. Some might never know the truth. Peter is always willing to try something new. He has quite a sense of humour and he tries to take things as light-hearted as possible. Peter also enjoys sports, especially running and the occasional skydiving. One of Peter's most well-known "possessions" is his five year old buddy Edward - a sweet and loving (some may call him 'big-boned') cat. Peter taught himself how to play the guitar about eight years ago, and has been playing it ever since. He also enjoys singing, often attempting a wide range of songs.
Education & Current Work
Malcolm received his Masters in Computer Science from Dalhousie University in October of 2005, and is now contracting with various companies. Peter is working as an Account Manager for ALC Micro, working on inside sales.
Music/Discography
Covalent Bond is currently working on their Fairview EP (including songs such as Campaign, Fairview Blowtorch Man, and Fairview At Night), while putting together other various songs in the process. Peter and Malcolm enjoy working together, and are able to come up with songs that are quite unique to the band's characters. Some of their current top songs include The Roads You Follow, Happy Melody, and Dishwasher & Tide. From time to time, Covalent Bond also likes to play covers of songs such as Radiohead's Karma Police, Green Day's Boulevard of Broken Dreams, and Smashing Pumpkin's Today.
Jamming in the basement of a family home in Fairview, Halifax, they always find time to have fun with their music and to entertain the coming and going people of the house. Occasionally, Covalent Bond likes to engage close friends and family members (including extra guitarists and piano players) in their jam sessions, using their talents for extra sound.
