  • Bio

    The Good Things are a 5-piece rock band from Swansea, South Wales, who have been making waves since exploding on to the scene in 2008. With their force of slick, commercially-minded rock music, they have been dubbed as the UK's answer to the arena rock bands of the US and Canada. .. The Good Things aim to get people out of their seats, with an emphasis on showmanship. TGT's first EP, Lighten Up. Stay Tantric. was recorded at The Sound Company Studio and co-produced with Andy Rosser Davies - lead guitarist for world famous metal band Onslaught – and launched to a packed city venue in April 2010. The Good Things are aiming to reach the masses with their liberated message: “Carry On Sweet Soldiers”. .. "Undoubtedly one of the most exciting young rock acts in the country right now." Nation Radio South Wales .. With a sleazy truck driver rock sound lent from the likes of Nickelback and Creed, mixed with euphonic four-part harmonies and foot tapping hooks, TGT have constructed a sound which has attracted acclamation from all corners of the rock paternity. .. The band have been gigging all around South Wales, establishing themselves at top venues including Clwb Ifor Bach & Barfly Cardiff, headlining the Cardiff Mardi Gras Festival live stage and playing at London’s O2 Arena amassing an army of noisy, horny fans along the way. .. “A Varied and vibrant sound... definitely worth checking out.” Vents Magazine .. Having recently recorded with internationally acclaimed producers at the Animal Farm studios in London, The Good Things will be releasing 3 singles over Spring and Summer '11, projecting them regionally and nationally. .. "We are excited about our new music; our challenge is getting the ears to listen to it! This maybe our ticket to the masses." There are certainly exciting times ahead for the Welsh rock outfit. .. "The band that it seems EVERYONE is here to see... An impressive note from singer Michael Lee Williams silences the very few people who are not here to see them.... a confidence that's equivalent to "shut the f*ck up and listen"... and listen they did!"
