Red Stripe Music Awards 2008 Nominee

The Download Show - Best Free Download of 2007 for Nothern High Rise

Supported bands including Nine Black Alps, The Alones and Envy Corp.

WHO WE ARE

Undoubtedly loud; there's a fine balance between indie pop and dirty rock that has this band labelled the best two boy, one girl action you'll see outside of Thailand this year.

There's no messing around here; their plug in, tune up and lets go attitude sees them tear through a set and work up a sweat under the bright lights. The whirlwind of distortion is lead by a pounding beat, overlaid with stories of love, life and belonging.

Looking to bring an edge back to the scene; this is music for those who at heart, work hard and play harder. Based in Manchester, you will find these northern souls have given the usual scene an altogether edgier twist. This is the real sound in the city.

MAIN INFLUENCES

As with most bands, it's pretty diverse, but mainly we are influenced by:

Interpol, Sonic Youth, BRMC, The Pixies, The Arcade Fire, Nine Black Alps, Joy Division, Nirvana, The Stone Roses, We Are Scientists, Editors, Super Furry Animals, Grandaddy.

SOME RANDOM SHIT YOU MIGHT NOT HAVE KNOWN ABOUT US

  • We used to reherse in a brothel.
  • Rob played guitar in an Asda advert with Julie Walters.
  • Jamie and Rob used to be in a band called Lincoln with Rob's brother, David Jones, who is now in Nine Black Alps.
