The Band

Emmanuel - Vocals

Alexis - Guitars, Vocals

Piran - Drums, Percussion

Bob Geldof knew all along and we now know too: the world is evil, unjust and full of oddly-shaped continents. We can’t change the land masses so the least we can do is appeal for more justice in the music industry. How can a mind-blowing band like the Butterfly Bangs remain such a well-kept secret when yet another generic group making generic guitar music is hyped sky-high by the media month after month.

The Butterly Bangs’s effervescent sound resembles a blend of Art Brut and The Killers, and the striking voice of singer Emmanuel often recalls a young Robert Smith. Teamed with chipper live performances, it’s a mystery why word hasn’t got out that this band is really going places.

The boys from Weymouth/Dorset have already single-handedly produced two EPs “Catch/Explode” and “Summer Shadows On The Wall”, both of which were lapped up enthusiastically by critics and non-mainstreamers. And Weekender Records has realized these butterflies are set to fly high and has signed them.
