The Utopians Press:

"This stuffs not bad, not bad at all"

- Zane Lowe (Radio One and Gonzo)

"a bold and brassy sound recalling early Supergrass. Something also of Baby shambles and The Clash….fat raw edged guitar sound, big drums and a more than half decent singer"

- The Dublin Castle

"Love it, Love it, Love it!"

- Julie Gordon (The Happy Mondays)

"The Utopians are the most underrated act to appear from the midlands music scene"

– JMT magazine

"a band with the potential to make into the big time"

-Jo Bostock BBC Radio Leicester

"Gifted songwriters and strong vocals from lead singer Jason Westall"

- www.artsinleicestershire.co.uk

   About The Utopians

Double A Side 'Dance For Romance/Come and Get It' Out 10th of August!

dance for romance

come and get it

The Utopians are four well dressed under-achievers from Leicester, playing a unique brand of geezer indie, influenced by the new wave sounds of The Stone Roses as well as Lo-Fi bands such as The Libertines.

The Band is building up a loyal following and reputation for hi-energy live performances. The Utopians are constantly on the road, playing in clubs, pubs and bars as well as more obscure venues such as warehouses, offices and bedrooms. Check the gig listings and make sure you find The Utopians sometime soon!
