This is the official Myspace page for the band Brookroyd Lane.
The band was founded in late 2007/ Early 2008 by members Dale Hooley (Bass/Vocals) and Dave Leeming(Guitar/Vocals). By Early 2008 were joined by Tony Hudson (Drums) and Johnny Mackie (Guitar). This meant that the setup was complete, so now we started working on our own original material, and started rehearsing at Diamond Studios based in Wakefield.
After a month or two of rehearsing songs we had written the Bands first gig as a band was at the Black Bull in Dewsbury along with 2 other bands, in which despite being a bit nervous managed to do the gig without showing any nerves. The gig went well in which we had a warm reception, with a lot more people than expected turning up. After this gig we were offerd a follow up at the same place again on the 9th May, which we were happy about. Finally at this point the Band though that things could start to happen. During this time we have played several gigs in and around the Leeds area at places such as Trash (Mixing Tin) and The Cardigan Arms etc which both went down really well.
At present things are looking really good for the band with more upcoming gigs in Leeds and surrounding areas, and also the possibility of playing abroad. The Band professionaly recorded there Demo on the 11th of May at HD1 studios in Huddersfield, the demo was recorded/produced by Dave Creffield (He has worked with Kaiser Chiefs and also Embrace). The experience was a first for us as a band and was one that we thoroughly enjoyed and will definately be doing again. With things getting exciting now for the band we hope you can come and possibly see us at one of our upcoming shows, or just listen to our music on the page.
Hope you enjoy the site and the music, leave comments for us as we are always wanting feedback on what people think of our material.
Hopefully we'll see you at one of our shows soon, Also keep checking back for updates on gigs and new songs which will be uploaded.
