About Me

BIOGRAPHY Hi we are the irony, a newly formed four piece alternative outfit,we formed in 2007 and have been busy doing gigs up and down the country ever since, Including camden town, hammersmith and the presitgus Cavern club in Liverpool. We have also been Playing festivals this summer and have been lucky enough to play along side top artists such as Envy and other Sins, Royworld and Sam Issac. We have recently finished recording our debut demo album which has generated much interested from local radio and press. We are very excited about the direction the band is heading in and we are working very hard to open up new oppotunities for our band to progress.

Debut EP "Make the Most of it" soft release. Debut Album "Ten Stories High" AVAILABLE TO DOWNLOAD NOW VIA iTUNES......The point Magazine: "A must see act, the irony have the audience under there spell from the strum of the first chord". Great tunes !!!!- The music book- A very professional and immensely enjoyable band, offering a refreshingly different playlist.The Evesham four-piece have been capturing the interests of their audiences. A unique sound!!! - BBC Hereford & Worcester - "The Irony. They’ve got an atmospheric, melodic Indie-Pop direction full of energy and ideas. Frontman Dave has a powerful yet tender vocal and combined with the haunting use of keys it gives their music a distinctive and evocative edge. Superbly crafted songs, with a great sense of pace and emotion, it’s no wonder the band has already attracted such positive media attention. A great sound and a great live performance" Unsigned Act 2009NME: "The irony" Who are they?
