The Shivering Indies

About Me


Powered by the songwriting of Ben Bradly and Jack Waterson, The Shivering Indies have shown what can happen when a hopeless romantic and mad scientist mix the melodic charisma of The Motion City Soundtrack with the raw power of bands like Gyroscope and Taking Back Sunday, certainly an explosive reaction. The Shivering Indies came about in December 2007, and have since achieved a great many things. Winning band competitions, endless live and recording experience not to mention gathering a loyal following within their local community, to which they remain fiercely committed. Along with unpredictable stage antics, and upbeat songs, The Shivering Indies will do anything to keep their audience entertained. The relatively young group have already had the opportunity to play in some of the area’s more prestigious and well thought of venues, including Newcastle’s Cambridge hotel, and the Annandale Hotel, Sydney. The lads are currently preparing for their first widely released EP, entitled “Adventures and Escapades”, and writing their follow up material. The promise of new tomorrows and even more highly-powered shows are welcoming, The Shivering Indies can only go one way, and they like the looks of up. Watch this Space.
