The Weight Of This E.P. OUT NOW!

About Me

Port Erin
We started out in January 2005. Throughout the two years we have extensively gigged the South-West, released our debut E.P. and have completed headline U.K. Tours playing some of the U.K's best underground venues and festivals.
2007 will see us gig more than ever before. With plenty of one off shows starting in March, festivals starting in July, a tour to the Isle of Man booked for August and a two month U.K. Tour taking shape for September and October. A handfull of dates are also planned in New York City, U.S.A planned for next Spring. It looks like it'll be a very busy year for us - Contantly meeting loads of amazing bands and people along the way.
30th March 2007 saw us release our debut recording. "The Weight Of This E.P." captures the early stages of Port Erin, fresh new sound with us as a three piece.
Please contact us if you have any ideas for news, gigs, bookings etc at -

“It’s hard to actually put Port Erin under a genre heading other than alternative, which is great because it means they have their own thing going on. Experimental and interesting. Its intense and original while still retaining a delicate and almost ethereal quality to it, they put on a performance that makes me want to go and see them again.” Ed Hutchinson - MOLES CLUB, BATH
