The Spires

About Me

Four lads from Coventry and Warwickshire who formed in Summer 2007.
We've become disillusioned with most current British indie music and hope to bring something different to it.

If you've got any interest in coming along to one of our gigs, or if you have gigs to offer, or if you just want a chat, comment/message us.
