We Have Band Announce Debut Album Details & Tour Dates
Monday, 22 February 2010
Written by Nigel Sachdev
One of Stereoboard.com's 2010 'tip-for-the-top', We Have Band, have revealed details of their debut album. Aptly entitled, 'WHB' is released in the UK on April 5th.
Regarded as one of the most refreshing and exciting bands to emerge in recent times, We Have Band (Tom WP, Dede WP and Darren Bancroft) spent most of 2009 touring the world and the rest of the time in the studio with producer Gareth Jones (Grizzly Bear, Interpol, Depeche Mode, These New Puritans) and are looking to prove the critics right with their debut album this spring.
Those looking for 12 tracks that sound like their previous two singles may be in for a surprise though, "The singles are poppy, danceable and catchy but there's another side to us" says Thomas.
"We like a lot of darker music. Joy Division, early OMD, and Talking Heads are some of the things that inspire us," adds Darren. "The three of us have lots of different influences and they've all come out on 'WHB'. We're so excited that it's now finished and will be released soon, it really is the full story of everything we've done from the very beginning up until now."
