Humbucker promotions presents Tramps and Horses +Unique Destruction + Support

Tramps and Horses:

Tramps & Horses was born out of a desire to bring Vincent’s poetry to musical harmony. With Deed, the Irish singing storyteller as his muse they played their music around Manchester attracting the talents of Pete’s guitar playing. Tramps & Horses then created Enchanted Brave, a monthly musical night, where for 2 years they drew in their audience and plyed their trade. It was in this time Keith, the long haired Irish man with the fingers of a guitarist and the boots of a bassist arrived fresh from Seattle. also came the sweet addition of Anna, who having replied to an add in the Royal Northen College of Music, brought to the band the soothing sounds of the cello. Neil Fearenside, the rock solid rhythm god, was found in a field in Derby whilst they were looking for a lost guitar, completed the line up. Rising from the ashes of many an incarnation, Tramps & Horses are now a Manchester based band that blend 60s West Coast American style rock with more comtemporary influences to create a unique sound. They have enjoyed success such as BBC radio airplay, T.V. and festival appearances culminating in the recording of their album in a 18th century cottage in Wales. They are an exciting and unique band with an ever growing diverse fan base.

Unique Destruction: (from their myspace)

Unique destruction formed in early 2005, and the members consited of Ben, Richard, Zak and of course josh. After a year or so Josh unfortunately got the boot, so we had one less guitar and as many people will know. No Bass Player. We carried on making music for about 3 years without the bass, and when our first gig at the palace came. We found out that we REALLY NEEDED A BASS PLAYER. So we started looking for one, then, eventually after playing at the palace the second time, we found a bass. Dave. So now, the band is complete. NOW we can start making proper music, instead of the credited song ‘Desire’. We made two new songs straight away.’ Her Destruction’ and’ Critical Danger’. These went down well at our third gig at the palace. People said that it sounded LOADS better with the bass.We later recruited Myles to tighten the band with a excellent sound. We are known for our amazing solos, unique vocals, excellent drum beats and riveting bass rifts. We’re definitely a band for the future. so look out!
