Deacon Birch

7" ON SALE NOW

About Me

Deacon Birch is a rock'n'roll band.

It was autumn and we were getting cold so we started a band. It seemed like a good idea at the time. That was in November 2004. Since then we've played shows with everyone from Genghis Tron (Relapse) and Big Business (Hydrahead) to The Grizzly Twister, Enter Shikari, Flood Of Red, The Seventh Cross, Dopamine, The Blackout etc.

In April 2006 our first recordings as a band were pressed onto vinyl and released by Midmarch Records in the form of a 7" (see below).

We'll be releasing a new record in 2008.

"You can't help but be stunned at just how good this band are...the hardcore scene needs more bands like this one. 9/10 " - Killer Dienamite Zine
