In 2005 brothers Paul and Darren joined forces with Cornell and Furious George was born. During the next few months the Halifax based trio practiced alongside various temporary members and mixing their creative influences developed a unique sound. The boys continued to play together and to make progress. However Cornell was begining to become tired of singing and playing the drums as well. Deciding that they needed a front man the boys enlisted the assistance of their friend Sinclair. After a few sessions things began to really fall into place and within no time Furious George began to play at functions around West Yorkshire and in venues such as Halifax's Fagins Bar.
In time the boys realised that they had a real opportunity to progress with some of their own material and Departure and She Said were born. Unfortunately Furious George realised that they would have to change their names for copyright reasons if they wanted to progress with their own material and after much deliberation, 16 Days was born! The lads made their first recording in summer 2006. They recorded "Departure" and a live version of "She Said" at Halifax College recording studio. They also made some of their own recordings at their practice room. Deciding they needed some better quality records, they booked into Huddersfields HD1 recording studio in January 2007. Under the guidence of top audio engineer Jason Salisbury the recorded their two most recent songs "Break It Down" and "Let Me".
Recently, the boys fought off some tough competition from great local bands to successfully win Halifax's 2007 'Battle of the Bands.' They have also enjoyed great receptions from music lovers in the area at venues such as: The Mixing Tin, Odsal Stadium, Royal Park Cellars, The New Roscoe, The Primrose and The Puzzle.

Leedsmusicscene.net Live Review: 16 Days Mixing Tin
16 Days + The Debuts Wednesday, 23rd May 2007
Words by Tom Martin & Photo © Tom Martin

Headlining tonight are 16 Days, a veritable funk-storm in a teacup. They may sound like a film about terminal illness, but there was nothing tedious about this or any of their performances. It's so nice to see a band that can't wait to get going, 16 Days literally brightened the whole venue. Think Barry, think Marvin, think Mr James Brown, with a contemporary twist. Sinclair's smile beams out upon the crowd every time he gets the opportunity to pause between belting out his immaculate flow of their soulful lyrics. Supporting players are the Whiteley brothers on guitar and bass, with Cornell delivering beats by the vanload. The truth is Paul and Daz Whiteley are trying to take over the world using only the power of funk, whilst Cornell's main interest is bringing the old wife-beater vest back in fashion (were they ever in fashion? Maybe just Germany?). The end result of all this is a racy set full of passion and humour, letting you know it's all right to smile at gigs! You can mope around at you indie gigs like you've sat on a spike but as for me I'm off to get funked up with 16 Days. So if you like your fun do yourself a favour and catch em if you can...

Hello,
We are playing the lovely Cardigan Arms on the 21st of March. Being foreigners from Sheffield, it would be grand if you could pop in and see us and bring a few other Leedsies with you if you are free.


Here are a few nice things people have said about us.
Have a listen on our page and see if you like what we are up to

"AN AMAZING LIVE ACT, I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THEM AGAIN" (Sandman Magazine)

"AN IMPRESSIVE SET FROM A BAND WITH A KNACK FOR WRITING CATCHY SONGS AND DELIVERING THEM LIVE AS WELL AS IN THE STUDIO" (Sandman Magazine)
"PROMISING SONG WRITERS" (Tom Robinson, BBC Radio 6)

"THESE DAYS I FIND THRASH AND POWER POP A BIT REPETITIVE, BUT THIS WAS REMINISCENT OF MORRISSEY WHILE STILL BEING PERSONAL, I HEAR THE POSSIBILITY OF A GOOD FUTURE. IT SOUNDS TO ME LIKE YOU COULD SUPRISE US ALL ONE DAY".
(Paul Gambaccini, BBC Radio 6)

Anyway, it would be nice to see you there.

Hi 16 Days,

Thanks for the continued friendship! Just wanted to give you a shout and tell you our debut single was released today!

CLICK HERE TO BUY FROM ITUNES!

Produced by John Kettle (The Marble Index, Aiden Smith), and mastered by Mike Cave (Elvis Costello, The Charlatans), this gutsy indie ballad combines atmospheric piano, thumping drums and epic, sweeping vocals to create an uplifting pop anthem.



Alibi was released on itunes today, you can buy it for 79p!
CLICK HERE TO BUY!

Thanks,
Andy.

Hello, we are foreigners from Sheffield that will be playing Leeds on the 12th of December at the Cardigan Arms. It would be grand if you could come and make noise for us, as Sheffield folk are far too frightend to come to a big city like leeds.

Hi there Mostly Toasties!!

Just a quick update for you on the goings on of the Mostly Toast world..

The studio in The Northern Quarter is now fully up and running. We are going to open the studio up to singer songwriters every Saturday for what we are calling our "fastrack" service. It's like a drop in centre for musicians to get a song recorded, all for just £20!! Check the blog for more details....

The Mostly Acoustic gigs down at Nexus and the monthly Mostly Toast nights at The Green Windmill are going really well. We've had some amazing musicians playing some great music.

Box Kid are still in the studio but the recordings are sounding great and we're really looking forward to getting them mixed, mastered and released!!

To Sophia have already finished their recordings and have an album launch night sometime soon!! They will also be launching a new website in the very near future too!!

phew...

That's all for now folks..

Love

The Mostly Toast Team

Hi!!

We're Mostly Toast.

"Mostly who!?", I hear you say!!

Well here's a bit of info about what we are, what we do and where we do it....

Mostly Toast is a record label home to the mighty Box Kid. Mostly Toast is a recording studio with 2 recording facilities and a mastering suite. Mostly Toast is a monthly night at The Green Windmill in Stretford, Manchester on the second Thursday of every month. Mostly Acoustic is a weekly unplugged gig which Mostly Toast runs at Nexus Art Cafe in the Northern Quarter, Manchester on Saturday afternoons. The Captain's Log is an unsigned bands podcast compiled by Mostly Toast which is streaming on our myspace page and our website 24 hours a day...

...we're very busy people here at Mostly Toast!

Mostly Toast's main aim is to promote good music.

Whether it be by making the highest quality recordings of a band to be released into the public domain. Finding great venues for artists to perform their music live and ensuring that the sound at these gigs is always to the highest possible standard.
Promoting bands that we work with via the Captain's Log and stand in slots on All FM. Or just selling merchandise for bands through the Mostly Toast online shop.

For more information on Mostly Toast check out www. mostlytoast. co. uk .

If you want to get involved with anything that we do here at Mostly Toast then just drop us a line.

Thanks for reading this.

Love

The Mostly Toast Team
