GIZZ'US GIGS YEAHH?

About Me


- Not A Lot. Exams... :(
If [For some reason] you would like to book Yellow Fever for a gig/party/bar mitzvah/wedding/abba tribute concert/funeral or whatever else, we'll play for pretty much nothing! To contact the band email us through this myspace or contact us on our email address [email protected].
In short, Yellow Fever are a four man band from Leicester, UK. Influenced mainly by punk but the sound is different, incorporating elements of powerpop etc. We want gigs so book us [contact below]Yellow Fever started when Rory McCarthy, Dan Graham and his brother Jack Graham decided that 'piss-take metal' band E=MCdeath was not enough for them, alongside another approx. 5 bands with the same members...
So, in 2006, while in the Grahams' 'recording studio', the record button was pressed, Dan played a riff, Jack quickly adapted to the riff, Rory 'sang' something, and out of nowhere, something that resembled a song came out of it. 'Oh' was recorded that day, along with a song called 'My Way'.
2007 saw the entrance of a new member to the band. Guitar player turned bassist [basically just lazy] Harry Hunt joined the band in October of 2007. No longer were Yellow Fever bass-less, and could now gig with a sense of significance.
We also have a PureVolume page here.
