Neosupervital is a one-man electro-pop outfit based in Dublin, Ireland. Neosupervital is the nom-de-pop of Tim O'Donovan, a multi-instrumentalist on the verge of releasing his second album; Proceeds, ten prime slices of electronic funk pop, in late 2009. Last time out Neosupervital live was a band affair - with three other people on stage- but this time it's just Tim going it alone. He's playing guitar and synthesizer and singing onstage, and wants you to dance and sing along. Indeed the first single; big on funk guitars, percussion, big synths and big drums, is called "Dance with You" and is out on July 10 2009. Previous band members included Jessie LoveAction, Miss K and Dancin Vin.
He was Bell X1's tour drummer a number of years ago.
