How would you describe your influences and how have they changed over the years?
Everyone in the band has different tastes in music so when it comes to writing songs we all bring something different. Our songs have a broad mixture of sounds. We have been told that we sound like a modern day 90s Brit Pop band which was our goal when we first put the band together. When it comes to influences there is a wide range of bands from the 50's to the modern day. The bands from the 90's such as The Stone Roses, Oasis, Blur have influenced Ollie and his song writing. Marty listens to Blues and Pop Punk which has brought the rock side of things to the band and his song writing. Jake has a wide range of musical tastes from bands from the late 50s to the modern day.
What´s new right now?
We are working on a 15 song album and releasing a 3 track E.P in March. We are on All FM in Manchester at the end of February to promote our upcoming 3 track E.P 'Set The Record Straight' and do a live acoustic set of the E.P. We are planning on having 3 or 4 launch gigs around Lancaster and Manchester in early March onwards. We are also in discussion with the Hard Rock Café manager for a promotional launch gig.
