About Me

BIOGRAPHY .
LO-FI CULTURE SCENE are made up of 5 13/14 year old boys who live in north london. The band started as Tom M , Angus and Callum . They played together for a while in a park avenue south basement doing some covers and making up some tunes which weren't that great. They then realised that they needed another guitarist as Bloc Pary's Helicopter needed two. So Callum asked his friend Tom H to join the band. They then started writing some better stuff and doing more of there own music. They then decided that they wanted a singer as they couldn't play gigs without one and none of them were very good at it. Tom M and Callum looked around their school for someone who could sing and found Jacob . The band rehearsed and still do in Tom M's basement, and they have been around for around a year in all but for around 7 months seriously. They have gone from playing the Park Avenue South Street Party to supporting Bloc Party at Concorde 2.

Sounds Like: ''Un-real,'' people were whispering, by the time they're 16, they'll be grazing on indie bones in the way that the young lion feeds on the ageing head of the pride - NME
Bloc Party brought their well-oiled machine to Brighton last Thursday to perform a one-off intimate gig for lucky members of the 'Marshals' fanclub. They were ably supported by Lo-Fi Culture Scene, a group of 13-year-olds who looked like The Strokes after being zapped by that crazy laser gun in 'Honey, I Shrunk The Kids'. Those expecting some kind of kindergarten-indie were soon proved wrong though - the band's youthful blend of powerpop and wonky US indie-rock was crammed with more energy and hooks than many bands twice their age can manage. LFCS are already being nurtured by Bloc Party's manager, so their future looks brighter than the illuminations on nearby Brighton Pier. - Blog Party
'Meet Again' is an accomplished pop gem for fans of Good Shoes or Bombay Bicycle Club - Artrocker Magazine
Fookin' Mint. - The Enemy
They'll be huge. - Tommy B (Mumm-Ra)
Lo-Fi Culture Scene contain the youthful energy of the Arctic Monkeys, the longing of the Libertines mixed with the emotional clarity of Bloc Party - Random Access
London’s coolest schoolkids (Lo-Fi Culture Scene - average age: 13) are already on the road to stardom. At least, nominal stardom – having rocked the recent Truck festival, home from home for the serious indie-watcher. With support slots for Bloc Party already under Lo-Fi’s snakebelts, the management and label heavyweights are circling. Let’s just hope they don’t ‘do a Menswear’. - Time Out
Lo-Fi Culture Scene are one of the fearsome army of under 16 bands roaring over the land at the moment. You will notice the singer was dressed as Batman, as there was supposed to be a fancy dress theme. A slightly pissed off Batman worked quiet well I thought. They have a great ringing duel guitar sound, the bass was particularly fluid too, they certainly should be snapped up by some enterprising label. They most definitely had the overall power to impress anyone seeing them in action. Meet Again was particularly strong but they had a sets worth of quality behind them, and mustered a front row of fans for the first time. Singer Jacob has a certain quality that's hard to describe but suggests Star potential. - Indie Dad's Review of September 1st @ Kings College
