Barnsley based GLASSYOUTH formed in February 2006 when Ol and Sean met at College. Motivated by the yearning to play live rather than the call for fame, these pop indie lads quickly built up a large following as they proceeded to gig throughout the UK; having played at the prestigious 'Glastonbury' (not once but TWICE), 'T4 On The Beach' in 2007, as well as support slots with, 'The Bravery', 'The Twang', 'The Ordinary Boys', 'The Maccabees', 'Mark Ronson', 'The Holloways', 'The Pigeon Detectives', 'Little Man Tate', 'The Hoosiers', 'The Wombats', 'The Subways', 'Amy Mcdonald' and many more. With all this success in little over a year, and all under their own steam without a label or management, it’s easy to see why these young lads are tipped to be big. Not long after forming the band, then called The Headliners, the band were at the forefront of the musical press, having won the 2007 Channel4 Unsigned Competition and also being selected as one of the final few bands of the Channel4's Mobile Act Unsigned 2007, chosen from 1000’s of band. With continuous mentions in the press, mainstream TV performances and first rate reviews their determination and hard work was starting to pay off. 2008 was no less exciting with the band changing their name to GLASSYOUTH, securing a recording contract and finally getting into the studio with producer Alan Smyth (Arctic Monkeys etc) to lay down tracks for their debut album “Never See Never Learn”. 2009 sees the guys delivering the album which will be kicked off with the release of the single “Bottle After Bottle” in April. The future for GLASSYOUTH is certainly looking very bright indeed.
