Live
The Watchmakers
“Imagine if Noel Gallagher’s solo record had actually been willing to cut loose and explore its boundaries, and you might be arriving somewhere near to their sound” (Drowned In Sound)
“One of the juiciest psych-rock delights you could pluck from the music playing fields of the UK right now” (Louder Than War review of Before Questions Became)
“The visceral charge of BRMC and the psychedelic adventure of Primal Scream” (Manchester Evening News)
“Underground, Psychedelic… COOL AS F**K!” (Clint Boon XFM)
Combining the sounds of classic 60’s psychedelia with The Verve, The Brian Jonestown Massacre and Primal Scream – Manchester based 4 piece The Watchmakers have created a unique blend of psychedelic laced rock n roll that has been shrouded in
over the last 12 months. Their self-produced Demo’s Before Questions Became and Waves have earned the band much critical praise and airplay from the likes of John Kennedy at XFM and BBC Introducing in Manchester and led to seasoned music lovers and music industry insiders clamouring for more material. Having sold out 2 self-promoted Psychedelic happenings in Manchester and playing with the likes of The Pretty Things, Jacco Gardner, Dark Bells and Exit Calm, they played a BBC Showcase in Feb 2014 and were recommended as “one’s to watch” on BBC 6 Music.
Blossoms
“Manchester’s Blossoms offer a lighter take on psychedelia, one that’s steeped in classic British pop songwriting. ‘You Pulled A Gun On Me’ and ‘Madeleine’, from début EP ‘Bloom,’ filter a woozy, organ-driven psych sound through a melodic approach that’s reminiscent of The Coral and the Merseybeat bands.” (NME)
