About this Event

In an era where tracks are produced by committee and honed by focus groups, NOTHING BUT THIEVES are a rare beast indeed - a band with the talent, integrity and vision to create heartbreakingly beautiful music entirely on their own terms.

Inspired by artists as diverse as Ray Charles and Led Zeppelin, Foo Fighters ,Arcade Fire and Jeff Buckley.

Buckley's legacy has loomed large over the last 20 years of alternative music and there's no point denying his influence on NOTHING BUT THIEVES.

Yet although the band readily acknowledge their debt to the late singer-songwriter, they have spent the three years since their formation developing their craft to the point where their sound and style is very much their own.

Like all the best things, however, it took time and effort to perfect. With the end results on the new EP causing excitement and rave reviews across the board.

No less an authority than Radio 1's Zane Lowe agreed, insisting it be played on his show on the strength of one listen.

That these boys are writing material of such maturity and sophistication while barely out of their teens is astonishing. That they're doing it all outside the traditional music business framework is even more impressive still.

If they continue to grow at the current rate, and there's nothing to suggest otherwise, the album should be very special indeed.
