About Me

The Rollison Affair strive to make catchy Punk/ Post Punk informed pop songs with an undertone of quintessential Englishness. Common points of reference include the Fall circa 'Hex Enduction Hour' and 'Chairs Missing' era Wire, along with Elastica, The Buzzcocks, Blur and PiL. The band have been playing regularly around London since summer 2005 including slots at Fierce Pandas flagship Dublin Castle 'Club Fandango' night and gigs with 'This Et Al' and 'Make Good Your Escape'.
