Quix*O*Tic - Whats So Good About Goodbye

Quix*o*tic formed in 1997. The original line-up was guitarist/vocalist Christina Billotte,[1][2] drummer/vocalist Mira Billotte, and bassist/vocalist Brendan Majewski. Majewski left in 2001 and was replaced by Mick Barr.[3] The band broke up in 2003 with Mira moving to NYC to form White Magic.[4]

The band was well-received, touring with Papa M, Will Oldham, and extensively with Sonic Youth.[4]

The band played the Sonic Youth-curated All Tomorrow's Parties Festival in Los Angeles in March 2002.[5]

A single Heliotrope was released on their own Ixor Stix label in 1998. This was followed by an album Night for Day, which featured a cover of The Miracles 1962 song "What's So Good About Goodbye, on the same label. " The second album, Mortal Mirror, was released on the Kill Rock Stars label in 2002 with covers of Aaron Neville's "Tell It Like It Is", Billy Stewart's "Sitting in the Park" and Black Sabbath's "Lord of This World".[3]

Quix*o*tic should not be confused with Quixotic - a completely different band formed in NYC in 2005.
