The Reveurs




Mancunian indie-rockers The Reveurs are releasing their new single Take a Bow to coincide with a string of gigs across the north of England that will see them playing in their home town as well as Sheffield, Leeds and Liverpool.

The Reveurs recorded Take a Bow in Salford's Blueprint Studio, made famous by Elbow as their recording studio of choice.  Blueprint has also played host to a multitude of other bands and artists such as Duran Duran, Smokey Robinson, Justin Timberlake and The Courteeners.


Take a Bow is a storming new track from The Reveurs who are committed to writing and performing intense, unique and lyrically engaging indie-rock tracks. Released on March 16th Take A Bow uses the anthemic repetition of the title to make the track stick in your head...this weeks earworm!









Formed in late 2013, The Reveurs consists of Gary Nelson (Vocals/Guitar), Iain Brewster (Guitar/Backing vocals), Adam Molyneux (Bass) and Ben Devenport (Drums).

Channeling musical influences such as Kings of Leon, Arctic Monkeys and The Strokes, The Reveurs have found strong support in Manchester and are ready to take their music beyond their home city to further add to their already expanding fanbase.


"They played to arguably the biggest audience I’ve seen in Night and Day since the end of last year as well, bringing with them many fans who got right behind them."

The Old Border

Despite describing themselves as 'ne'er-do-well musicians' London four piece The Old Border are producing some classy alt-pop stylee tracks culminating in the release of the bouncy All Over as their first single.

It's the first track off their soon to be released debut EP Rehearsed In The Mirror and reflects their musical influences nicely.










Born from a love of loud modern rock bands like Biffy Clyro and Kings of Leon fused with the honest storytelling of Bruce Springsteen and Gaslight Anthem, The Old Border have turned personal failures and small town strife into earnest, authentic guitar music.
After gigging and recording, the band have finished their debut EP Rehearsed in the Mirror, and in anticipation of its release are returning to the 'toilet circuit', filming a music video for their second single and continuing to capture suburban struggles in three and a half minute rock songs.












The marriage of honest lyrics and assured musicality runs through the Rehearsed In The Mirror EP with a moodier Don't Talk following on from the effervescent lead track All Over. 

Influence-wise the third track in If Only leans towards Kings Of Leon with its infectious guitar work whilst Past Caring veers off towards Biffy Clyro with a more driving riff and vocal. A fair bet for a second single release by The Old Border?






The Old Border are playing The Enterprise in Camden on January 30th and I'm sure there'll be announcements soon with more gigs. In the meantime, have a look at the nicely crafted video for All Over. Rest assured Ralph will be giving the single a spin on Radio KC.
