  • Bio

    .......... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .... .. ...... .. .. .. .. .." 'Its You' turns up the heat with its relentless guitars....Jumping Orbit can play, they can write and they can sing" HOTPRESS magazine .. .. .. .. "The music is mixture of Pavement-esque low-fi sound, juxtaposed with the post hardcore song structure that ‘At The Drive In’ made famous. There also, and I know I’ll sound crazy for saying this, almost an Irish folk lilt to the singers voice....it will be interesting to see how these guys evolve over the next few years." Gigging NI .. .. .."Individually each song has it's strengths, demonstrating how the bands writing has grown to incorporate increasingly direct and coherent song structures. Stand out songs, "Unborn Tragedy" and "Promise Land" show the clever use of space and an appreciation of pop sensibility within the band's song writing. This allows vocalist Matthew Laverty to clearly sit above the anthemic arrangements...as a comparatively young band, they should certainly be one to keep an eye on!" ..All Gone Pop .. .. .. .. "Front man Matthew engages the audience and invites them to become involved with the live show while the sound is hooky, beefy and tight with a beautiful and unique guitar tone." Panic Dots .. .. ..Jumping Orbit, yet another Mid-Ulster band with domination lurking behind those young eyes, wrapped up their first G Session with a relative ease; a band who've found their niche and a dominant fanbase to boot. Their songs are based on a mixture of influences and delivered suitably so with a confident little swagger that's beginning to sprout in all the right directions. There's more than a nod or two to the post experimental stylings of Biffy Clyro and Kings Of Leon, the former in their verging on hard playing, the latter with their big hooky choruses; and Orbit do justice to their muses and then some. As the voice of the band, Laverty clearly relishes the crowd and between songs rids his mind of idle thoughts playfully riling up a mixed crowd and easing the band's passage through what is their biggest gig to date. ..Niall Kerr (Mid Ulster Mail)..
