Retrograde Inversion

Retrograde Inversion were a college progressive rock/funk rock band from Haslemere, England. The band formed in 2003 as part of the Live and Direct Youth Scheme. The band's name is derived from the musical term Retrograde Inversion, meaning backwards and upside down. Front-woman Louise Coady and guitarist Cassie Philpot formed the band in 2003, and recruited Sophie Lowe to play bass in early 2004. Later that year lead guitarist Rob Hack and Ben Turk joined to complete the line-up,
They performed at Alton Live and played a free concert at Alton College. More notably however, they won the Alton Battle of the Bands. In addition they played on Delta Fm and BBC Radio Leicester.
Counting Rage Against the Machine, Radiohead, Tool and Aerosmith among their influences, they were described by the local press as having "an exciting mix of bass-driven funk and 70's style melodic rock".
After entering the recording studio in 2005 the band disbanded.
In 2007 vocalist Louise Coady joined the group Jump Ship from Bath, England which disbanded in 2009 before forming the electronic duo Kloudbreak from Bristol, England under the name Lou Coady.
