MUSIC CRUSH

I OFFICIALLY HAVE A NEW OBSESSION!

I MUST CONFESS I HAVE BEEN CRUSHING ON THE BAND ,YEARS AND YEARS, FOR WEEKS NOW AND IT THINK IT IS TIME TO SHARE WITH YOU ALL HOW INTERESTING THESE GUYS ARE. 

HAVING BEEN VOTED BBC'S SOUND OF 2015 BIG THINGS ARE SURELY TO BE EXPECTED FROM YEARS AND YEARS, AND WITH THEIR HYPNOTIC BLEND OF ELECTRO-POP/ R&B SOUND AND ENCHANTING LYRICS IT APPEARS THAT THERE IS NO FEAR OF DISAPPOINTING THE INDUSTRY AND THEIR EVER-GROWING FAN-BASE. 

THE TRIO WHICH IS FRONTED BY 24 YEAR OLD, ACTOR TURNED MUSICIAN OLLY ALEXANDER (YOU MAY RECOGNISE HIM FROM SKINS, AND THE RIOT CLUB) FORMED IN 2010 AND HAVE HAD A STEADY INCLINE TO POPULARITY. 5 YEARS ON FROM THEIR FORMATION THE GROUP HAS GARNERED ACCOLADE FOR THEIR ELECTRO-SOUL SOUND, AND WITH THE RELEASE OF THEIR DEBUT ALBUM, COMMUNION,  ON THE 22ND JULY OF THIS YEAR, THEIR OBSESSIVE MELODIES AND ADDICTIVE LYRICS  THE BAND WILL TAKE THE PRIDE OF PLACE AS ONE OF THE SUMMERS STANDOUT ANTHEMS. 

THE BAND WILL TOUR FROM MAY TO JUNE OF THIS YEAR - GET TICKETS HERE TICKET MASTER.
