LINDA’S NEPHEW

the band with the guy who kicked down that door.

About Me


“Incessantly catchy rabble rock roughians from Cambridge who (thankfully) sound like they've forgotten to take their dose of ritalin.”- NME.
"Feisty, wilful and animated, Linda's Nephew bang out synth driven, thrashy indie in blink and you'll miss them sub three minute packages. With a fiery nonchalance and raw vigour, they've a lot of promise, sounding a little like an early Linkin' Park on the demo's opening track, "Health Challenged Survival". A change of pace and more traditional sound follows on the second tune "God Dammit Leroy" which follows the well worn Smiths / Killers' take on modern guitar bands but Linda's Nephew return to their more naturally obtuse sound with final track, rounding off the EP with the keyboard driven, almost Inspiral Carpets a like, electronic funk rock of "Michael Barrymore". A blistering two tunes there with bags of potential to boot" - CLASH MAGAZINE
"Sort of like a band version of the sixth form common room." - This Is Fake Diy
I have never sent out a demo and I have never had a 'Promo' shoot. Honestly? I can't be bothered with looking silly and doing what is expected of me. Write songs, play songs, make friends. That is pretty much it.
I like Adult Swim, Los Campesinos, Marmite, cats and sitting in a van with Look See Proof.
I wish I could say something cool along the lines of "If we don't send you a message back, it's because we are super busy." But the truth is I make time to reply to everything. Hell I even reply to people telling me I should get a free Macys card.
