Some nice stuff people have written:

"Their moves of expressive and large with touches of understandable arrogance. Whatever your expectations may be, this band will exceed them."
Verse One Magazine

"enjoyable to listen to with hugely impressive melodies always present, and astronomically catchy choruses attached to all five of these excellent pop songs."
http://www.alt-uk.com


"The Getaway Team is one of the new bright young bands on today's music scene who successfully manage to mix numerous genres together into a unique sound."
www.musicriot.co.uk

"Throughout this self-assured debut there are catchy tunes, harmonies which are... well, harmonious, and well-written songs."
www.highvoltage.org.uk/

'Haven't You Heard…' turns out as a collection of cheerful riffs, muscular sound.
www.lastbroadcast.co.uk/

"up-beat, poppy and incredibly catchy"

Hello all... Firstly Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you guys...(and girls)!

2007 has been a really good year for us, playing lots of shows to you all, recording lots and writing plenty of  little master-pieces that everyone can enjoy!!

This last week before christmas has been cool, lots of shows and happy times e.g...Nando's christmas fun with a Joshless H.P.R, and some not so happy times, e.g Reading witnessing our shortest set to date. We just want to say thank you so much to everyone who has supported us in this last week in Basingstoke, Brighton, London, Reading and Cambridge, you guys are awesome.

SO...2008 is shaping up to be packed with tours, releases, videos, new songs, and plenty of merch for you to wear like its goin' out of fashion ;-).

We will be starting the year off on a new label: Easy Tiger

...Growl...

We'll be recording our debut release in the form of an E.P in January with the lovely people at OUTHOUSE studios (cheers Joel), which will be released in March, with the first single and video released in February. This will be backed up with constant nationwide touring, and a second single/video combo being released later on in the year.

Lastly, a big thanks to all the promoters who have put us on, all the bands who we've played with, and all of you who have come to see us this past year!!

So again have a Happy Christmas and a Great New Year,

Love from The Getaway Team xx
