AloneMe

"bittersweet acoustic pop, they make it seem easy"

About Me

AloneMe is the finely-tuned songwriting partnership of singer Sarah Springett and singer/guitarist David Booth, plus highly respected drummer/programmer Simon Edgoose and hugely talented singer/multi-instrumentalist Liz Townsend.

The band has gigged constantly since their inception in 2003, with hundreds of gigs from London to Dublin and all points in between. The hard work has paid off and their reputation as a must-see live band continues to grow.

Between June 2006 and Feb 2007, the band spent time at the Loft Studios, Liverpool, with sought-after producer Nigel Stonier (Thea Gilmore, Brian Houston, Rod Clements...) and with financial support from the Arts Council’s Escalator Project. The result of these sessions - Sketch - is the band's first full studio album, comprising 10 outstanding tracks showcasing the trademark AloneMe strengths of fine songwriting, cutting lyrics, killer harmonies and classic pop hooks. p"A confident and instant collection… surely mainstream radio play awaits.” (Keith Ames, Musician Magazine)

"Worthy of considerable success...the potential here is huge" (Elton Townend-Jones, Music-Zine)

With a fantastic album up their sleeves, a loyal and ever expanding fan base, and momentum building with label High Barn Records on board, 2008 will surely see AloneMe make the kind of breakthrough they've deserved all along

NEW STUDIO ALBUM 'SKETCH' AVAILABLE NOW!
