The Hold Up

"Bring The Noise!!

About Me



It all started in 2002 as a 6-piece ska/punk band. After playing gigs in and around our home town our band captured the support and fan base it needed to shine!
After parting with a drummer and other members, along with with many months of searching for replacements, we finally found the member we needed to push forward mid 2007. Although we saw members come and go, our music progressed and grew into what we are today; a 4-piece punk/rock ensemble, known as 'The Hold Up'.
Today we showcase new sounds and a new image that we hope will re-establish a strong following. Reviewed as "Quirky" - "Energetic" - "Powerful" - "Influencial". Bring the noise!!

"I really can’t knock these guys in any way. Hopefully in the future they can get some serious quality studio time under their belts and deliver fully on all the promise that they have.
If there are any promoters reading this then I’d recommend them 100%. Very pro attitude and when it comes down to it they deliver."
