PLAYTONE LIVE AT CASTLE PLAYTONE FEAT THE DEAN

Playtone
Quantcast

I listened to Playtone on my ipod all over the christmas period. Fantastic songs, this really is my kind of music.
Jeff Wayne, Composer of War of the Worlds

I think you're going to do very well, a lot of people are going to love your songs, I love them!
Daniel Wylie, ex Cosmic Rough Riders singer and highly regarded singer/songwriter

With delicate yet powerful acoustic instrumentation and strong lead vocals, the group seems poised as a contender for global success. Elegant and soulful, Playtone is Scotland's best-kept secret.

Like your favourite jumper it makes you feel safe and warm inside and provides a perfect pick you up for these cold winter nights. This track has all the hallmarks of future anthem, now bring on the album.
Is This Music

Playtone are simply one of the most exciting live acts, local or otherwise, I have seen for a long, long time.
Edinburgh Evening News

Definitely the most sublime singing voice of the songs I heard on My Music.
Del Marquis, Scissor Sisters Guitarist

A single which demands you sit up and notice.
Daily Record

The Glasgow music scene has a habit of knocking out these bands that can mix melodies and rock n roll and although its early days, there has to be some hope that Playtone can add themselves to the list soon enough.
Room Thirteen

Playtone are definitely set to make a name for themselves. Displaying both capacity and charisma, the track is a perfect piece of melody that just can't help but burst out of your stereo. This four-piece already have what it takes to take the music scene by storm.
TSM Radio

What you get with Playtone is melodic, passionate, uplifting, infectious, and at times even genius slices of musical perfection, performed by four guys with unbelievable talent and dedication.
By Night Magazine

Their big sound filled the excited atmosphere and it was thoroughly captivating and utterly irresistible not to stare intently at the stage.
Motive Sounds

They play with a passion and it is great to hear a band who take such great care in their songwriting. They are one of the tightest bands I have ever seen. If you get a chance to see these guys, then do as they won't be playing smaller venues like ours for long.

"Ticklin' The Strings" by Sweet Hollywaiians
Amazing Japanese hot string band playing 1920's, 30's, 40's style hawaiian, swing, calypso, blues, italian music and originals,featuring vintage instruments.3 songs with Robert Armstrong and Tony Marcus(from Robert Crumb and His Cheap Suit Serenaders)

"The Sweet Hollywaiians have probably the best feel for this 20's music of any string band working today. They manage the rare feat of sounding relaxed even when their playing is hot, are top notch musicians with tasteful arrangements and a full, rich, warm sound.Plus, they have a nice gamut of tunes, from King Nawahi to Giovanni Vicari to Bobby Leecan. See them live, if you can, for an unforgettable experience. If you can't, buy their Cds!" ~ Terry Zwigoff

best part of 2 years with no internet, non stop slaving for a multi-billion pound evil empire and no access to my gear, got the internet yesterday and thought " i know il see if playtone have got anything up that isnt "round at my place" yet"what a pleasant surprise! sounds like uv come a long way since the crusty old days of brilliant songs, lots of energy but slightly lacking something in the tits and ass department(in a sonic sense).. worth the wait and im sure theres much more to come. keep it up! working at7, takes me an hour to get there and i finished at half 10.. keep living the dream lads! even if it really is hard f*****g work..
