About Me

We're Donnie Brasco from the South Coast of Devon near Exeter. We started writing and playing shows in this guise in Jan 2008.

We've had a busy year, recording a 2.5 track EP @ Stakeout Studios, getting some airtime on Radio 1's Lockup and playing as many shows as we can. If you want a copy of out CD come check us out and grab a copy (they're free)!!

We have had the pleasure of playing with Bane, Crime In Stereo, Phinius Gage, Red Lights Flash, Intro5pect, Captain Everything, Jesse James, Enter Shikari, Static Thought, Fei Comodo, Out of Sight, Arnocorp, Mouthwash, and The Computers amongst others.

We are currently looking for a Label/Management. If anyone could help us out please get in contact.

Our best friends in the world are AK48, Turn Down Elliot and Rat Attack - check em out in our top friends below...
