"The Operation take the stage, they are going places and they know it...They are a well oiled machine, tight, polished and professional...Playing catchying rock songs with crunchy riffs and chant along choruses..they would not be out of their depth strutting their stuff on a major festival stage" Sam Mallison H20 Magazine

"This three piece put on a brilliant set,
and clearly had the fans here tonight....For a three piece, they certainly
made a lot of noise...The singers’ powerful voice and beautiful guitar was joined by some powerful bass, and some strong beats from the drummer....reminded me of all the old rock that I’ve been brought up on,
like the likes of Deep Purple and Led Zeppelin...Each song had a new and quirky edge, and the fans were loving it, which you could tell by the singing along." live-music-scene.co.uk
"More hooks than a trouts gullet" Dom Gourlay Drowned In Sound
This is the OFFICIAL OPERATION myspace page. Already making headlines in the US, The Operation are a young, three-piece power trio in the true sense of the phrase. While the ever irreverent HITS magazine calls them “Young, loud Brit Pop with US radio sensibility," and the legendary industry trade Radio and Records says The Operation is, “Brit Pop the way it was meant to be... it’s Oasis for the myspace generation," the ever-growing number of fans for the UK based group are already hooked.
Hailing from the town of Bath in the southwest of England, with influences ranging from classic British rock to modern day alternative and pop, these three talented artists have carved themselves a very distinct niche, in the ever-changing UK music scene. Having played hundreds of shows throughout the UK not only headliners, but as support to some of Britain's top name artists, The Operation have also performed on many of the UK’s top seasonal music festivals.
At an average age of just 21, Alex, Oli and Nick have been described in the music press as a cross between “early SUPERGRASS and mid era THE WHO". As all of their material is self-produced, the band prides themselves in having an incredibly loyal, and rapidly growing fan base.
The Operation are: Alex Veale (guitar, lead vocal), Oli Court (drums. vocals) and Nick Wilton (bass. vocals).
