Deaf To Van Gogh's Ear

The band began in the winter of two-thousand and five when the ebullient Adam and the august Evan - then studying at college together - gravitated towards being in cahoots with one another because of a mutual admiration for the word 'tapas' without knowing its meaning. Some quantity of years later - after much painful struggling against painfully bad songs and excruciating band names - the illustrious Holly became prevalent on the scene. All were besotted by her agreeably killer bass themes.

Apricot Rail

One day, after his star sign promised a ‘dynamic’ afternoon, Ambrose Nock (guitar) decided it was the right time to form a band known as Apricot Rail. He was soon joined by Jack Quirk (guitar), Matthew Saville (drums) and Daniel Burt (bass). The premise of the band was simple: music based on unique guitar tunings, the use of natural harmonics, and very open ideas about other instruments, electronica and song structure.
