All The More

All the More started out in early 2008 as a 3-piece, consisting of Ad, Paul, & Sean. Put together purely for the love of music & live performing!

As practice's went by, they became stronger and own material emerged!

Months past and things were on a roll! Come June 2008, Lee was bought in on lead vocals which made the band the strongest it had ever been!

Continuing as a four piece, many gigs were setup, 2 EP's were recorded, competitions entered, things were going well!
Early 2010, they have now increased to a 5 piece!
Introducing Chris on lead guitar. Bringing flair and pacey solo's to the songs.

This being the final line-up for the band.

No doubt you can find them on the Midlands circuit!
With great stage presence and lots & lots of energy, they're definately worth a look!!

Who knows where they'll be in 10 years ? But for now...........

THEY ARE 'ALLTHEMORE'

End Credit:

We're from Redditch. if that doesn't say it all for you here's more reading. We formed as a 2 piece just over a year ago (Summer/Autumn 2008) with Zol on a mission to get this band going, Lozz played drums and James on the guitar, a few months later Kev joined and picked up the bass, after playing together for a few more months the idea of a new drummer came about when news of Sunset Cinema Club were to split, and the chance to re-claim a punk drummer back to its roots was a mission set in stone and fated. We have been playing together and writing tunes for over 6 months and we have been on the hunt for vocal part for ages. Choking the shadows of the past from the days of Brain-Ache and Megalablastic: Lozz, James, John and Kev have decided to go back playing punk after all these years.

Man Over Board:

If there's one thing people have said about MOB is that its just not like anything that anyone is doing at the moment. The five piece set up of meaty guitar riffs fused with psychedelic/electronic keyboards backed by funky bass and oh so phatt drum beats creates an experimental sound that sits happily in the gaps between indie, dance and rock genres. The band has developed its unique sound over the last 10 years, not being swayed by the current trend and concentrating on writing songs that are individual and stand out from the last one, indeed after seeing the band live, most people comment on how different each song is. Gigging regularly at top local venues such as: Bar Academy, Marrs Bar, Jug of Ale, Flapper & Firkin and Birmingham Barfly, MOB continue to invoke positive reactions wherever they play, adding to their rapidly increasing following of friends and fans. They recently performed live on ITV, recording two songs (The Trip and Dr Funk) and an interview. Man Over Board's latest recording is called "Shake It!", recorded at Brook Studios, Redditch. Other recordings include The Trip and Indian Summer EP's which were recorded at Hijack Studios in Redditch, and produced by former Dodgy front man Nigel Clark and Sunset Cinema Club guitarist/vocalist Dom.

Mudcat Gypsies:

Hello people. For a long time I have had this music/noise (depends how you look at it!) In my head. I've been in many bands who, although I enjoyed playing and recording with them, it was never really what I wanted to do. I was never really in the drivers seat. So this is my self indulgent love affair. The Self Titled E.P is now finished with the L.P On the way. I hope you enjoy, Please let me know what you think. Cheers

Pegasus Bridge:

Having tirelessly worked on their craft since inception just over twelve months ago, (and rapidly becoming one of the buzz bands of 2009 in the process), legendary producer John Mitchell (Funeral For A Friend / Kids In Glass Houses / Enter Shikari / You Me At Six) expressed an interest in working with the band and has now captured the energetic and upbeat sound of Pegasus Bridge perfectly.

The melodies are simple and beautiful; the songs rock while remaining delicate and intricate. They are fresh-sounding and timeless; and most importantly, all come packed with hooks that could land a shark. Taking inspiration from a number of influences, spanning various genres, the band creates a unique twist on a modern sound; made-to-fit on any radio station.

Now, the boys are taking the results to every corner of the country with an impressive, relentless touring schedule, the fruits of which have brought the band Radio One plays and shows with the likes of InMe, The Subways, Ladyhawke, The Futureheads and Pendulum. And October 2009 saw the Midlands’ biggest radio station – BRMB – vote Pegasus Bridge their Battle of the Bands winners.

Pint Shot Riot:

You grab your phone and text your mate, asking if he fancies a PINT, but the predictive text throws up in rapid fashion PINT SHOT RIOT.

Do mobile phone manufacturers know more about the state of this country than they’re letting on????

PSR are - Rocket (Lead vocals and rhythm guitar) Rob (Lead guitar and backing vocals) Mini Rocket (Drums and backing vocals) Baby Dave (Bass guitar). Rocket is the front man, he sings and he rattles along on his guitar. The band is his life, and he can't imagine doing anything else. Him and Mini had played with different musicians in and around Coventry before finding the two boys that created the balance that led to Pint Shot Riot.

Baby Dave plays the bass and was known locally for being the top boy obviously, there was only one band he could be in. Rob hailing from Redditch, was recruited on lead guitar, he met the lads through a Birmingham studio after they got a whisper about his playing skills. In January 2007 they had their first rehearsal and the story began....

Talllulah Fix:

The Tallulah Fix are a band that are not scared to mix different styles and influences. Formed in late 2008 due to 'not fulfilling dreams' and 'small town boredom' we do this because we have a mutual love of music. We now aim to keep writing,practising hard and look to play gigs wherever and whenever. We recently recorded a demo and it is a reflection of what we have achieved in a short space of time and a taster of what we can achieve in the future.

"Hitting you right between the eyes & ears Tallulah Fix have you nodding & tapping your feet right from the off. This lot have to be one of the finest new acts I have heard in years" - Andy O'Hare - BBC Hereford & Worcester.
