   About The Dials





Untitled Document Photobucket

With their fiery brand of rock n roll, Edinburgh 3-piece The Dials are fast becoming one of Scotland's most exciting new bands.

Joe, Jonny and Murray have shocked the Scottish music scene with their powerpop gems and energetic performances earning them kudos from some of Britains biggest bands and top promotors. With frequent radio play and an evergrowing fanbase, The Dials are on their way to becoming the next Scotish success story.

Jim Gellatly, XFM Scotland


The

The Dials have supported many successful acts including The Fratellis, The View, The Futureheads, The Subways, The Sunshine Underground and Boy Kill Boy

The Dials are best known for the energy they give to each and every performance. They've played many of the prestigious venues across the UK, ranging from the intimate London Buffallo Bar, to the massive, Glasgow Carling Academy. To add to the achievements, They've recorded with respected producer Marcus Mackay (Snow Patrol, The Cinematics) they've headlined the legendary King Tuts and sold out their hometown Cabaret Voltaire.

The Power-trio are all set for success, as documented by The music press and famous fans.


What they have said about
The Dials

"The Dials are my favourite band in Scotland."
Pete Wentz - Fall Out Boy

"Still in their teens and with a bright future ahead of them, The Dials are a super-tight 'power-trio' that blend breakneck, indie rock with more atmosheric, spaced-out passages. Give them a wee while and they could be real contenders."
Vic Galloway, Radio 1

"The Dials have supported us twice, and rocked both times. Really got the crowd into the gig."
The Subways

"Sounding good guys, keep it up and maybe we'll bump into you on the circuit next year"
Ash

An impressive early CV for a band so young, and what they lack in years, they certainly make up for in ambition.
Edinburgh Evening News

"I was bowled over by their enthusiasm, and then the stunning set they turned in"
Jim Gellatly, XFM Scotland

"Im loving If I dont see you (Track 2 on the demo)."
The Kooks
