NEWS! its taken a lot of searching but we reckon we've now found our perfect drummer! If we seem a little quiet its because we're training him up. The new albums still being worked on, and still, unfortunately, taking longer than we anticipated.

If Kirsty MacColl, Kate Bush Morrissey and Marr were locked in a room together it'd probably sound like this! Brightly coloured bouncy pop instilled with a wistful melancholy...and a rickenbacker! ...And maybe even some floaty dancing if you ask Gavin really nicely!

'Spreading musical waves across the UK, Not Made in China are a quirky and fun musical experiment, promising an unforgettable performance
Not Made In China were born in 2007 shortly after Tiff Wheaton-Green (vocals, guitar, tin whistle, kazoo) and Gavin Blackhall (vocals, piano/keys, bass) met and discovered their shared the same musical tastes and desires, quickly spinning a web of impressive lyrics and catchy melodies.
Their first steps into the musical world were taken with the release of their EP ‘Real to Reel’ in May 2008. The record is a stunning mixture of original and covered tracks, from the vibrant and catching sounds of ‘Speak of Love’, to the haunting piano notes of ‘The Bride’, to the famously covered track ‘Tell Me Ma”, which is uniquely stamped with a mixture of refreshing and lively sounds from the tin whistle, against the infectious and deep beats of the bass.
Both diverse and dynamic. The group has a string of impressive performances to their name, including the Evolve Festival, Seafood festival, Tolpuddle Festival, Forest FM, Vale FM and Ivel FM.'
