Dead City Riots are David Cunningham (vocals), Cameron Smart (bass), Greg Tees (guitar) and Chris Coll (drums).
They've been one of the best live bands on the Glasgow circuit for the last few years, they played a full UK tour with Fu Manchu in summer 2007 and have also played gigs with Kasabian, Brigade, Slaves To Gravity, Lost Alone, King Adora, Enjoy Destroy, The Miles Hunt Club (ex wonderstuff), The Ga Ga's, Sluts of Trust, Chikinki, Smother, Fallen To and many more.
Their debut album, Always is never the same, was recorded with Chris Gordon (Union Of Knives, Deckard, Baby Chaos), and was released in October 2006 on Casket/Copro Records. The band are currently writing material for their 2nd album which they hope to release sometime in 2009.
