Revolution

The new home of rockets, lights and dreams!

About Me


"REVOLUTION- superb anthems pitched ina cerebral scally setting somewhere between The Bunnymen and The Roses, ace…." - Bugbear Bookings
"I think Rocket Shoes is an amazing song and I love the words...''but I will survive, because I grew my hair''....such a bizarre thing to say, it makes me grin every time I hear it. The song is powerful and stirring, as are the others and if I heard that on the radio for the 1st time, I would have to know who the band was. I hope you are pushing your music onto the record companies because you should be out there big time!" - Gel, audience member at Sellindge Festival
'Revolution' formed in Horley (Surrey, England) September 2001
Winners of BBC SC Unsigned, nominated for the BBC Electric Proms, 'Artist Of The Month' at Hitquarters.co.uk and Songquarters 'Artist Of the Week'. Revolution have headlined packed out venues such as The Underworld, The Garage and the London Astoria 2 etc...etc...
The band has recently supported Idlewild at Sellindge Festival and was booked to appear at Sunrise Festival this year. They recently finished recording their 'Revolution EP' with Joe Fields (Sway/Amy MacDonald) and plan to record again, possibly later this year.
Keep the light on.
