Since forming in Manchester, England in late 2003, Delayed Promise have played over 100 shows around the UK and independently released six CDs to critical acclaim. Influenced largely by US-based alternative bands such as Jimmy Eat World, Arcade Fire, Paramore and Weezer, their sound is fresh and distinct in a British music scene dominated by bland indie acts. Major gigs include support slots with AntiProduct and US rockers Bullets To Broadway, in addition to well-received performances at Manchester's In The City music showcase. They won the Silk FM Battle of the Bands competition in 2008, coming out on top against some great bands from across the region.

The band recently returned to their origins as a 4-piece with the valuable addition of Gem Carter on bass. Many more shows and another CD of brand new material are planned for early 2009.

The time has come folks for the AFA/DELAYED PROMISE MINI tour!

We have been needing to do this for a long time anyhow, but we were thinkin 4 or 5 days in the uk. The two bands and hopefully a local band at each show.
Booking Manchester is never a problem so only 4 dates to go!haha
Rick said you were writing for the near future but we are planning this for August bang in the middle of the English summer!So it may feel more like Winter.

If you guys are'nt up for it, its cool. Get back to me so I can start arranging things coz it would be a huge laugh if we do it!

Hope alls well.

Much love
