  • Bio

    ..The Layers WERE a funky, psychedelic, ambient, rock, extravaganza from York, England. They WERE Jon Newton on Drums, Mollie Taylor on Sax, Luke Brownbridge on Bass and samples, and Oliver R Tones on Guitar and Vocals. Oliver R Tones had written all the songs so far, drawing from a number of years worth of home demos. The four of them had been playing together for just over a year. John, Luke and Oliver had been playing live together since November 2005, when they debuted at The Roman Bath in York. They had still played only 14 gigs in total. Having performed at Fibbers, Certificate 18, The Junction, and the Basement Bar at City Screen in York, The Cardigan Arms in Leeds, and the Riccall Regen Centre whose Battle of the Bands they won in April 2006. Their prize was a day in Cube Media's recording studio in York. This session produced The Flash Mobbing EP, which was released in June 2007. .. ..
