About Plans & Apologies

Plans & Apologies are a six piece band from Derby in der mitte England. As part of the music media's hopeless pursuit of the perfect pinpoint pigeonhole in one, Plans & Apologies have been described as sounding like The Wedding Present, The Smiths, The Kinks, Pavement, Belle & Sebastian, Blur, Gang of Four, Captain Beefheart and the Super Furries. But then you don't really need to know that cos you can listen to us all over this page. Be sure to check out the FREE downloads over there on the left! Head over to our website for a more detailed, over indulgent biography. Yup yup.

"One of the best indie bands in the world" Huw Stephens, Radio One

"Seriously, what's more manic: the singer trying to work in as many syllables as he can, as if the band's started the van without him, or the overstimulated guitar that sounds like a Slinky running down stairs at full speed? "Two Left Feet" is a tightly wound coil that sounds like it's ready to spring open violently..." Pitchfork Media

"Playing gorgeous lo-fi pop one moment, then bashing out some mental riffage the next, these indie poppers are backed by a Stephen Malkmus-style lyrical charm" NME

"Here is a group which has spiky, sharp, intelligent, unruly, thoughtful, spontaneous, creative energy with obvious signs of nascent lyrical genius." Drowned in Sound

happy jacqui	Sep 15 2007 4:04 PM I am going to sacrifice my work night out at Oceania (yes thats right Oceania) to come to your gig in Derby. The fact it's a back to school party and the one of the over priced chaviest places in Notts obviously made this a very difficult decision :0).

The Carter Manoeuvre	Jul 3 2007 11:27 AM ...so nothing of any particular interest happened today throughout history; something about John Major and a rock, a Rolling Stone died, Quebec was founded... Considering this is statistically likely to be a slow news day for everyone, we're bound to make some local headlines by telling you about some shows we've got coming up. If you're in the vicinity of any of these, come and say hello: 5th July - The Walkabout, READING 6th July - Superconnected (Jug and Jester), LEAMINGTON 7th July - Clockwork, LONDON 9th July - The Vic, DERBY 12th July - The Cellar, OXFORD 13th July - Godiva Festival, COVENTRY Hopefully these will be the last shows we play with our flood-wrecked gear - insurance should be coming through over the summer, hooray! Much love to you and your friends, lecartmanoo xxx
