The Dawn Chorus are an indie/folk collective comprising of six lifelong friends from Fareham, Hampshire. Having self-released three locally acclaimed Eps, in 2008 the band released their début album 'The Big Adventure' on Portsmouth's Jellymaid Music. Loosely based on J.M Barrie's Peter Pan, the album tackles life, love and loss head-on. Intensely melodic and driven by guitars, mandolin and brass, the band take the sound popularised in the US by acts such as Arcade Fire, Bright Eyes and The Shins and give it a uniquely British twist. Praise for 'The Big Adventure':"Intelligent, honest and beautiful" - REPEAT"Beautifully melancholic songwriting" - Clash"Utterly Gorgeous" - Planet Sound"A country-pop classic waiting to happen" RockSoundRanked number 7 in Planet Sound's albums of 2008 www.myspace.com/..thedawnchorusuk The B of the Bang is a lo-fi, electronica-tinged, anti-folk cake with a gothic, grunge icing. Topped with de-tuned fuzz cherries. The B of the Bang use guitars, loops, mandolins, white noise, xylophones, accordions, banjos, feedback, shouting and percussion to conjur up melodies and maladies for the 21st century. The B of the Bang exists in an age of copyists and bandwagon-jumpers. Brigands, blaggards and ne'er do wells. It's sole purpose is to sound unlike anything else you've ever heard whilst sounding exactly like everything else you'd ever want to hear. The B of the Bang is really just the sound of one man slowly losing his grip on reality. www.myspace.com/thebofthebang RING KAREN ON 07974 512 434
