Sound of Rum formed in the summer of 2008. Since then rapper Kate Tempest, guitarist Archie Marsh and drummer Ferry Lawrenson have been playing gigs all over Britain, at every festival going - whether on actual stages or just busking in the rain.
Their first EP Balance is available to buy at www.soundofrum.com The second EP, Best Intentions, will also be available soon. The band are now in the process of recording their first full length album, which will be released in April/May 2010 and are gigging extensively, mostly in London - if you want sound of rum to come play a gig in your town, email info@soundofrum.com
Thanks for taking time to check the band. Keep on it, these are exciting times for us...
Yo How's it Gwon...Keep pushin...in the industry, without suplicating, chasing, asking, answering another's questions, especially comes to mind the black uniform of a Police Officer...know your Civil Rights, Know your Commodity Value... That the Sound of Rum most of the time will be up against the same grinding cogs of the N.W.O and all it'f followers..like a religion along with the day to day reality of the monetary religion...Fuck New Deal and there slave work force plans...fuck the Industry and all the ass kissers...Sound of Rum is above and beyond that.. I'm so fucking fortunate not to be a Slave, I have to sleep in a field...chor food...as I begin to debrief my life I realise my friends are not resource's they are my friends The Jobcentre is not my Guardian...I will fucking rinse them to I am done and I've already told them I'm not doing there work program for 37hrs a week for an extra £30 for some Coorporate..tell your Down hearted friends they can claim Income Support..The Law still exists..We got to have someting to live on... They are grinding the will out of ppl at the first phase of an engineered meltdown....I'm so fortunate to have a Soung Girlfriend who is the most knowlegable dubstep connaisseur in Bristol along with the no 1 Artist for Backdrops for Soundsystems..We,ve got a Skateramp in warehouse...toke and choke..and I'm working on geting together a fucking army to take down this fucking Government
You guys are audio-chemicallly enhancing the world!!! massive respect !! i saw you play the electric picnic in ireland earlier this month and i was hooked instantly! Do you think you will be playing anymore Irish dates this year or early next? The Roisin Dubh in Galway city would be a fantastic venue for you guys to play, or anywhere in Galway for that matter :D
It was a pleasure listening to your words and your music, may your success know no bounds
