Biography

The mischievous Volcanoes are hot like a laser beam, fizzing with ideas and in full musical technicolor, this band has it's teeth clenched deep into the UK indie scene. Based in both Leeds and Sheffield the band lives in a creative soup absorbing both scenes and constantly evolving and tweaking their sound. The band has come a long, long way since its humble beginnings as a two piece acoustic act. Things haven’t always been easy, they’ve taken plenty of knocks but they’re unstoppable now and sounding better and fresher than ever. From the outset Volcanoes have made it their mission to write enchanting songs, to gig them as hard as possible and to enjoy every minute of it. It has never been about looking good or acting cool, trends come and go my friends but great music lasts forever. The band avoids the cliques, plays super sweet gigs and has a fabulous and growing fan base, not much else really matters. Volcanoes thrive on two things, jolly good fun and brilliant music. The band is also slick, tight as a knot, rude, funky, gracious and simply heroic onstage. They pride themselves on their live shows, to them this is what it’s all about and they have such an infectious charm when performing. On top of everything this band is super productive. They are always busy either writing or recording and have a wonderful back catalogue of EPs just waiting to be discovered.
