"Headliners Tilted Smile hotted up the atmosphere as they hammered their way through what must be the most energetic set I’ve ever seen. It’s a wonder they didn’t pass out, the pace of their performance and manic stage manoeuvres ensured that within 1 minute of bursting on stage their enthusiasm and drive was oozing out of every pore."-BBC

*********************************** "LIVE AT SUN STUDIO" ***********************************
In 2006 the journey of this album began when we won the Jack Daniels’ National Battle of the Bands – the prize, a trip to Tennessee, USA to record in the legendary Sun Studio
Made famous as the original recording studio used by Elvis and Johnny Cash, Sun Studio is a National Historic Landmark and remains in almost exactly the same condition as in the 1950s, preserved as a museum by day and studio by night.
On 10th September 2006 we took over the studio for 6 hours and decided to perform our 13-song ‘06 gigging repertoire as a live performance.
With adrenalin pumping we played through the whole night on a battered drum-kit and without guitar amps in a room that hadn’t been altered since the 50s.
With guitar, bass and vocals plugged directly into the recording equipment we relied on headphones to hear each other and to get the songs right against an impossible deadline. This caused problems during ‘No Looking Back’ when Jack’s headphones slid off during his solo! The track, however, made it to the album despite this small technicality!!
From November 2006 to January 2009 we have been working hard on these recordings to get them to a standard we feel proud of. The project has been a huge task as unknown to us at the time, the source recordings contained noise and interference from the microphone leads.
Using the original un-amplified guitar sound on it’s own was not a viable option on the recordings so re-recording sessions in the practice room have been meticulously undertaken to record the guitar as it should sound. Be assured though, the original recorded guitar is of course on every track of the album which remains a true live recording.
We feel proud to call every aspect of this album our own as we have written, performed, mixed and produced the album and artwork with just us three band members putting our heads together. We hope you enjoy the music which had been through an extraordinary journey over 2 years.

Heyup guys...Images slideshow on my Flickr webpages of Tilted Smile's storming set at Derby's prestigious Rockhouse!......brilliant!! Tilted Smile supporting THE BITTER PILLS ( Ex 22-20's)
Link below:..includes many past gig photosets of Tilted Smile
This our next big show coming up. We're supporting the 22-20s who are now going under the name The Bitter Pills.
The 22-20s are an English rock band from Sleaford, Lincolnshire. With
a trademark blues rock meets adrenaline skiffle sound, one paper
described the 22-20s as sounding like "The White Stripes as played by
The Jimi Hendrix Experience"
Named after the song "22-20 Blues" by Skip James,
the 22-20s formed as a three-piece with Martin Trimble on
guitar/vocals, Glen Bartup on bass and Mark Barrett, later to be
followed by James Irving, on drums. They were soon augmented live by Charly Coombes (brother of Supergrass' brothers Gaz and Rob Coombes) on keyboards, who subsequently joined full time.
