About Me

MyGen Profile Generator Think of Kings Of Leon being beaten to a bloody pulp by Electric Six...
Imagine the bastard son of Editors and Green Day…
Welcome one and all to the musical styling of 4FT SOLDIERS.
This four-piece Indie-Rock act has supported esteemed artists such as Test-Icicles, Towers Of London, The Glitterati, Black Wire, Kill The Young, The Feeling, Oceansize, ShitDisco and Good Shoes.
More recently, the 4FT.SOLDIERS have been included in the soundtrack to the MTV production ‘DIRTY SANCHEZ: THE MOVIE’ giving the band international exposure.
“An Awesome blast of maximum Rock ‘n’ Roll!”
 (Northern Riots/SJM Concerts)
“Huge world beating tunes, topped off with a commanding stage presence. You need to look out for this band.”
 (Designermagazine.tripod.com)
“They know what they’re doing as each song is given exactly what it needs, no more, no less. No fucking about. The Soldiers are a thoroughly entertaining band that I would gladly pay for to see again. So should you for that matter. Hurrah.”
 (J. Black @ Night and Day Café, Manchester)
“No messing here. This lot don’t waste time on subtleties; they just barge onto your CD player and give you a good kick in the groin while they’re at it. It’s hard not to be impressed.”
Colin Irwin - Planet Sound New Indie
