We are Romanov. Established early 2008 in the town of Leigh and since taken Russia by storm. The project was initially a David Lynch idea that was rebuked as being complete nonsense. But, having gathered three other members: Lewis Sproston - Lead Singer and Part-time comedienne, Alex Pendlebury - Hitter of goat skin, and Liam Hollis - Ballerina Bassist, the dream could be realised.
A couple of months later, a second guitarist was sought after. After many tried and failed, Matthew Durkan was brought in to take the place as the final member of the Romanov movement.
With a dedicated fan base who follow our every move, we are sure you will see Romanov somewhere on a piece of paper soon.

Reviews
"A tight unit coming across as a perfect sum of its parts with a balanced set which grows in confidence and is never afraid to change tempo and style with impressive vocals from Lewis Sproston." Blackpool Gazette
"Finally, the crowd’s favourite, Manchester lads Romanov play a twenty-minute set followed by rapturous applause. And they deserve every inch of it: the songs are catchy and melodic; irresistibly indie riffs powdered with rough, rocking vocals, and their on-stage energy is unforgettably fantastic." Grace Cook - Forge Today Sheffield's Uni Newspaper
"Romanov certainly seem to have an edge over the rest...Their arrogant lead singer provides us with stage presence and charisma of the sort that craves our attention...their strong beats and general enthusiasm for their own music proves they have definite potential." Sophie Armour - Manchester Evening News
