  • InfluencesBeer, women, various recreational drugs...that pretty much covers the inspiration for our songs. Musically, a little harder to define. Basically, 5 blokes with completely different outlooks on life and music got put in a room and told to play. If you think we sound like someone let us know and we'll put in here.

       About The Backyard Flames
    Formed in early January 2006 after Mark got far too drunk after the FA Cup 3rd round and told a promoter that he had a new band and they were sounding cool. The morning after whilst nursing a horrible hangover he tried to figure out he was going to get away with it, he then remembered that he knew Tone and Steve (Drums and Bass respectively) and approached them both with the idea of putting something together.

    After a few rehearsals it became quite clear that unless the PA was turned down real low they were never going to get away with one of them singing.

    Steve knew Col, Col could sing. Col meets the rest of us and after approximately 34.8 seconds we asked him if he wanted in.

    After a couple of months of the 4 of us knocking about everyone was getting ready to kill each other, not because we wern't getting on, far from it! We just kept having fights over who's round was next and thought that the best way to keep the unity within the band was to get another member to generally, well...get the next pint in.

    We thought about 2 drummers, 2 bass players and 2 singers, but we opted on 2 guitarists as Col had this bloke that lived with him who could play rhythm, that bloke was Paul. Since then the band has gone from strength to strength, playing some of Londons finest venues and getting better and better with every show we play. The live shows are always explosive and with more recording on the horizon the band look to continue burning into 2008.

    As you may or may not be aware SoundARC hold a charity gig every year at Club 85 in Hitchin in aid of the Garden House Hospice in Letchworth, and this year we are going to try something a little different from previous years.

    This year we are going to take over the club and host 37 acts in one weekend putting full bands upstairs and acoustic acts downstairs in an event that we are calling ARCfest!

    It all starts on Friday 4th December at 7pm and then continues on through Saturday 5th and Sunday 6th from 12pm-11pm

    As well as raising money for the Garden House Hospice in Letchworth, ARCfest will showcase all the different genres of bands that we at SoundARC have come across over the last 4 and a half years. Over this weekend a lot of the acts that you will see don’t get a chance to play a great local venue like Club 85, So as well as hearing new music you will see all manors of genres and styles from acoustic - Metal - Indie - Rock - Punk - Electro - Ska - Funk - Hip Hop/Rap - Alternative - Rhythm & Blues - Reggae - Grunge and loads more that I cant remember!
