The Cartelles formed in the last few months of 2006, throughout 2007 the band quickly picked their feet up receiving radio play from over 35 local UK stations (including Red Dragon FM, XFM and BBC Radio Wales) and playing venues all over the UK.
Throughout the year the band continued their success by playing alongside bands such as The Automatic, Kate Nash, The Streets, Underground Heros and Viva Machine. They also won the XFM Unsigned competition and we're chosen from 1000's of artists by the Brylcreem team to appear among 9 others on the Brylcreem Effortless EP. They're highest point of the year though was having the opportunity to open the main stage at the Metro Weekender festival in Cardiff.
After the departure of their lead guitarist THE CARTELLES made a comeback in 2009 with a new line-up, new songs and an even more positive attitude.
This year is already looking good for the band, they are currently putting the finishing touches to their new EP with new songs that are obviously going down well at their live shows as they were put through to the Live and Unsigned South West Final in Bristol and have been talking with local label See Monkey Do Monkey Recordings.
