THE CHEVRONS

About Me

Originally, the band consisted of just three members, co-founders Richy and Pete who were joined by John on bass. Cookie is the newest member of the band having joined in March 2005.Pete came up with the name whilst travelling in the car with his family. Looking out the window he noticed a simple roadsign "Chevrons ahead". From that moment, the Chevrons were born!......................................................A lthough still unsigned , we rehearse at The Bunker Recording Studios in Sunderland. During our first year , we have gigged around the North East and are now hoping to take our own style of Indie music further a field.......... Any promoters out there who would like to offer us a gig please message us and we'll get back to you as soon as possible............................................ Also , to all our myspace friends please drop by for a chat anytime.
