Bio
From the ageing ashes of something ridiculous emerged two men. Two men on comfortable chairs, with acoustic guitars, drinking tea, making songs. At some unspecified point a third man, hairy and wild, dug his way back in, bearing rhythm. Songs became louder, chairs less comfortable. Heads filled with the eighties, America, orchestral noise, pop, heartbreak, confusion, low-slung basslines, disillusion, fear and hope peeked above the water. A tentative toe was gently dipped into the live circuit. Something more raucous, furious even, showed its cards. Nice things were said. Plenty wasn’t. A stand off, a showdown. Growing louder all the time, the energy increased. There’s something brewing. Something, for sure. ..Twenty Year Hurricane is a band from Nottingham, UK. ...."Honest songs of the human condition and of the certain uncertainties of being. Bounce to them, feel their energy, take them home, they're good for you".. ....I'm Not From London.. ...."Playing a mix up of 80s inspired indie and post punk sounds, these guys seemed to have the delicacy of the eighties moody indie boys but without the frowns that need turning upside down. Lively but still lovely, twangly but still energetic - dancing almost wasn’t optional as the rock and indie mix was just right.".. ....LeftLion.. .... .. .. .. .. .. ......Twenty Year Hurricane / Upside Down.. from ..Dan Toporowski.. on ..Vimeo... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. -
