Some Velvet Morning: off with a bang
Indie | Tuesday 19th February 2013 | Varala
How many bands get one of their demos featured on an international Hollywood blockbuster trailer? Well, Some Velvet Morning did. Their single ‘How To Start A Revolution’ from their debut album Silence Will Kill You (2007) landed on the trailer for the superhero action comedy film Kick-Ass (2010). Not bad for an album they made while still not being entirely sure of what they were doing.
After kicking off their career with such a bang, the 80s synth-pop influenced group have since put out a second album, Allies. But the North London band needed £100,000 from crowd funding for the release to be a success. Luckily, with the dedicated and growing Some Velvet Morning fan base, the band gathered the full amount in only six weeks.
If you want to hear what all the fuss is about, get your tickets to see the indie/Britpop rock trio at The Roundhouse on 1st March. Here’s a taste of the tracks from the latest album:
