The Lookaways were formed in a farmhouse in North Yorkshire during Febuary 08 by Mike Allison, Martin Vickery & Sean Allison. The addition of Tim Matthews on drums and Aidan Reilly on Guitars & Mandolin completed the band's line-up.
The Lookaways have recently recorded their debut single 'Stone Cold Love', co-written by Mike Allison & Martin Vickery. This track has signalled the beginning of the band's commitment to delivering high energy rock to venues across the south of England, as well as pursuing a recording career to distribute their unique blend of no-nonsense tunes and hard-hitting lyrics.
