Six Degrees of Separation are a grunge influenced rock band from Britain's most easterly town, Lowestoft England, home of The Darkness and described as "God's arsehole" by Kiss frontman Gene Simmons. A town with areas of high deprivation it houses a multitude of bands, young and old.
The band formed a 18 months ago and have a set of over 30 songs. All five members swap guitar or vocals for drum sticks and/or bass. This gives diversity in the style of music and a great live visual performance.
In the autumn of 2006 Six Degrees introduced a 5th member (Danny Maher,2nd guitarist).As a friend/fan of the band from the start it was easy for Danny to fit in nicely.
After only three weeks Danny had played three gigs and with more close approaching there was not alot of time to get penning some new stuff.

Their music, heavily influenced by 90s Seattle grunge, follows the "verse-chorus-verse" theme with passion and rawness and has been described as "infectious yet simplistic". The songs vary widely, the listener should be able to pick out the influences of Alice in Chains, Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Incubus, Red Hot Chili Peppers and Pink Floyd. No prizes for guessing the main vocal influence!
The first full band gig was upstairs at The Seabreeze Club, Lowestoft. The venue was almost double capacity, some had to be turned away for fear of the floor collapsing. Jamos, cracked a rib just threes songs into the set by being over enthusiastic with a tambourine during the punk style song "For All My Help". In addition Gene Simmons' Rock School 2 cameras appeared to film the entire evening, a clip from the set was aired on Channel 4 on 29th January 2006.
The band have been gigging heavily throughout the first part of the year, with lots more gigs booked up and festivals to be confirmed.
Their debut single "You No More" was released on April 17th and available to download following the link.
From April to present they have been at No 1 in the Grunge Charts on UK Bands. During June "Cheese of the Stoneage" was played on Pulse Radio www.pulserated.com or Sky Channel 0115. They are also set to appear in the next issue of "Unsigned Magazine" in the review section and "Sowing Lights" is to feature on the covermount CD.
This summer sees Six Degrees of Separation performing a host of festivals and gigs. They returned to the recording studio this month to record more tracks for their debut album.
"...These guys manage to pull it off. Their sound has it's own character which enables them to stands above the clones. All five of the songs on this demo are strong, and have a modern heaviness in the production. This band are perhaps the missing link between Bush & Soil. If that sounds appealing, check them out. You won't be disappointed. 7/10" - VM Dan - Unsigned Magazine
"We are impressed by..the standard of musicianship on offer - technically advanced yet still simplistic and infectious. A great mix" - Rebecca Williams, Head of A & R, Inkhouse Label
"Overall impressions are that it's well cool." - Dave Arcan, Buzz Records
"I really thought it was incredible.." - Will Sherman, A & R Manager, Matchbox Recordings
