Alternative rockers GIANT AND THE GEORGES have a few single's out there with another coming out very soon. The band goes on to say much more about themselves and their music!
1. Please tell us about the history of your band and its members.
Brothers Ben and Sam had a history of performing together and in various other bands. One day their sister brought home Luke (the eponymous 'Giant') who had immediate musical chemistry with the George bros and thus they performed acoustic Beatles covers at open mic nights.
They recruited K Man on drums for a charity gig and their electric trajectory carried on from there, playing clubs and festivals around the West Midlands and releasing singles and music videos.
2. What’s the origin of the band’s name?
Two brothers (the Georges), a taller fellow (the Giant) and the drummer.
3. Where is the band based out of and what is your music scene like there? Are there any local bands you could recommend?
The Black Country and Birmingham have a rich history of rock music: Robert Plant and Black Sabbath to name but a couple of icons from the area. Currently there's still a thriving scene across many venues in Brum, Stourbridge and Wolvo.
4. How would you describe your style?
Driven but intricate guitar tones, Beatles-inspired vocal harmonies and infectious melodies.
5. What have you released so far and what can someone expect from your works?
We have released three singles and two music videos (find us on YouTube, Spotify, iTunes, etc). Expect zingy hook lines, tangy riffs and vocal harmonies sweeter than honey!
6. Do you have any new music in the works?
On 28th June 2019 we'll be launching our next single with music video: Blind Love.
7. How about playing shows and touring, have anything planned out?
Many irons in the fire - keep your eyes peeled! In the meantime you can catch us at several August dates in Birmingham and the Black Country (see our website and social media for details).
8. What plans do you have for the future as a band?
More music to be released along with videos, plenty more gigs, heading out to different cities! In short: world domination!
9. Where can we listen to your band and where can we buy your stuff?
Our music can be found across all major platforms, at gigs (nothing beats a live performance) and on our CD singles. Drop us a message for more info!
10. What is it you’d like a listener to remember the most when hearing your music for the first time?
We always hope that a particular hook line gets stuck in a listener's head, whether it be a vocal line or a guitar lick. We love it when a listener ends up singing one of our tunes back to us at shows!
