Music for the masses... come shake your asses!

About Me

The Cortinas are a 3-piece indie rock band hailing from West Norfolk. Nath & Kev are brothers who originally come from Corby, Northants.. We now live near Kings Lynn, and that`s where we met Steve, in May 2005. We are a cover band at the moment playing "60`s guitar pop to modern day indie rock". We have earned a reputation for sounding like the artists we cover, and people enjoy our varied range of songs. Basically we just play great tunes! We have come under increasing pressure from our following to get some of our own material out there! Our first track, "Deborah", has gone down well at gigs and we are busy writing more. Nath has got his own myspace too. There's a couple more of our tunes on it. Bex (our sound engineer) has also got one. Find them both in our top friends. If you need to contact us, e-mail us at : [email protected] or send us a comment...we'd love to hear from you!!
