Lines In Sand

About Me

Lines in Sand are a South Yorkshire based 4 piece consisting of a group of individuals who shared an interest in playing and writing honest music. The band was originally put together in early 2008 by singer/guitarist Alex and guitarist Adam after both having a few years out of playing in bands. Both had similar interests and styles of writing and felt they would compliment each other when writing material. John and Dan, both mutual friends were natural choices to join:
Alex Steadman – Vocals/guitar Adam Nicholson – Guitar/vocals Dan Wright – Bass John Lee - Drums
After only a few months together Lines In Sand had gained interest from independent Doncaster label ‘Inhaler Records’. This gave the band the incentive and drive in the second half of 2008 to work hard on material, developing a strong, powerful live sound and gaining a following.
The band are about to release their debut single ‘Moving Away to Start Again’ as a split with Seduction records’ Cocean as well as spending time in the studio putting together their debut full length entitled ‘Defences’ planned for release on Inhaler Records this year.

Sounds Like: *NEW* music video for "Moving Away To Start Again"

"Reminiscent of such luminaries as Rival Schools, At the Drive-In and Sensefield amongst others it’s the kind of powerful, driving indie rock you thought the likes of Coldplay had managed to wipe out with their insipid drivel. If they can keep up this standard they’ll definitely be a name to watch out for." 8/10 Die Shellsuit Die!

"Bringing together two of Yorkshire's best kept secrets, this split single does a sterling job...a rather cracking split!" Rock midgets

"Two hotly tipped new bands Cocean and Line in Sand...I believe that the future looks bright for both" The Mag
