Press

"hugely exciting Scottish prospect...had me as excited on first listen as Glasvegas or Punch & The Apostles...ones to watch in 2009."
Rick Fulton (Daily Record)

"Simply brilliant.... you hope they do well and they succeed in being heard by the masses. But secretly - deep down inside - you'd like them to remain your own little special secret, 10/10"
Is This Music?

"A fab slice of funk laden indie"
Jim Gellatly (Radio Magnetic)

"Captivating live.... these songs have the ability to provoke mandatory foot-stomping, head-nodding and ass-shaking movements that are not seen in this city"
Glasgow PodcART

"Vendor Defender create a funk & groove designed to insight spasm's in even the most limp of humanoids - Prioritise your life don't buy cornflakes or beans go and see Vendor Defender, a sight to behold for 2009"
Mark Stevenson (Editor, Altsounds.com)

"unique.. they sound like pop with a twist of punk to the ear... Artist of the month, 6/6"
Music Review Unsigned (www.musicreviewunsigned.com)

"It's fair to say that this is not a band characterised by the current indie scene, Vendor Defender are a band who embrace the funk in their music.... You need this band with you right now!"
netsounds (myspace. com/internetradionetsounds)

"As introductions go this is pretty perfect... infectious new wave indie pop at it's best"
Rhythm and Booze (www.rhythm-and-booze.co.uk)

"Catchy...new wave with an unusual modern twist....Vendor Defender are a breath of fresh air"
Limbo (http://black-spring.com/limbo/)

   About Vendor Defender

Vendor Defender formed in Glasgow in early 2008 with Zak, Frazer and Suse creating their infectious new wave pop/rock. Their name is taken from a legendary chubster at Suse's school who used to defend what he loved.

2009 has seen Vendor Defender tour Norway and the UK as well as supporting Micachu, We Have Band and the 2009 Mercury Music Award nominated The Invisible.

This month they play BAFTA Scotland awards ceremony, Define Pop festival, Electric Circus in Edinburgh and back in Edinburgh with the Futuristic Retro Champions at Sneaky Pete's.
