♠ Posted by @jero22ind

The Detours a young band that is working really hard,  their FB says "The Detours are a four piece Indie Rock n Roll band that hail from the Caernarfon are in North Wales. Driven by the raw riffs and catchy melodies The Detours are sure to be imediate and in your face. The band was formed in mid 2012 and are very ambitious for the coming months! With a few demos already recorded and up their sleeves,be sure to keep your eyes and ears open over the next few months."  and like they say: "British guitar music is dead? Not any more!"

-Why that name?

 The name was a pretty tricky one for the band,everything else sort of clicked straight away,but one day i was just brainstorming ideas for a name that included "the" and thats when it happend,and also it looks good.

-Influences
I think the new age of british music is still finding its feet a little bit, arctic monkeys were one of the first ones to properly find it and sticked to it recentley,other than that you could say the vaccines are on the right track also

-North Wales is an special place.... But if you have to choose a place for growing up as a band ... Wich one could it be?

MANCHESTER deffinatley! everythign about the place is just great, the culture,lifestyle,the scenes and just everything fits in great


-I saw your soundclound... How do you create that bloody good music?
The songs have been written in a very short time, i used to write the music/riffs just efortlessley and they just came to me, and we would just jam the songs together(me and iwan the singer) in my garage on a cold winters evening, so yeah it was pretty basic and pretty real,but trust me you havent heard it all yet!

-Do you want to go to Glastonbury, Leeds/Reading next year or go on tour around USA and Europe?

I would love to go to glasto but i would have to go for the tour for now

-5 songs you love

My 5 favourite songs.......take me away-oasis, tommorow never knows-the beatles, made of stone-the stone roses,imagine-john lennon,supersonic-oasis......very hard question haah

-A  Big fest or an small and private concert?
Big fest to start off just to get the experience! probably would enjoy the small one more though

-If you could create a fest, wich groups and where

The headliners would be...Ii would get Oasis back together, the stone roses, arctic monkeys! and it would be situated somewhere around the north of england!

-Will you come to Spain?
We will deffo come to spain,once we get someone to give us some gigs and promotion! but please spread the word and i will let you know when were coming!
