About Me

We are three guys who are now based in Belfast, we make records with punchy little pop rock songs. We are called Mike, Peter and Colin when we are are apart, and Nanook when we are together. We sound like the track playing in the little box above this text because... thats us playing in that little box above this text. We do nearly everything ourselves and very much appreciate the little help we get from others. We sometimes make mistakes, but only once. We like to play, light fires, crowd surf, buy equipment, tour, drink and return home at night safely. We hope you enjoy your stay on this page and that you be our friend and sign up for the blogs! Be well everyone, come see us soon, Best wishes, NanookOUR EP "FINALLY YOURS" CAN NOW BE PURCHASED BY SIMPLY PRESSING THIS LITTLE GREY BUTTON!!!!!!

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 4/19/2008
Band Members: Micheal Patton - drums, Peter Pratt - bass, Colin McMurray - vocals and guitar
Influences: Our influences are varied and many. I don't think we wear them on our sleeve though so it may be more fun for you to listen and try and figure out where we are coming from. Being based in Belfast though, we don't have to look too far afield to hear great music and that helps.
Sounds Like: you tell us......RECENT VIDEO BY Urmuzic
Record Label: Unsigned
