The Gullivers influences

Comments
say something, go on, you know you want to..
The Gullivers
"boy/girl vocals meet brooding etheral soundscapes with a harsher art-rock edge."
Growing up in one of Oxfordshire’s musical backwaters The Gullivers first turned to punk as their salvation but after time spent gigging around Oxfordshire and London their sound has evolved into more intriguing musical territory while retaining the harsher edge of their earlier work. After a couple of years of plying their trade around the only the most glamourous of toilet venues, The Gullivers have now been joined by Sophie McGrath on vocals and keyboards.

The Gullivers provide a visceral musical retort against the small town boredom that ensnared them as teenagers. While the likes of many before them have chosen to document small town life against predictable jangle, The Gullivers set their sights on something more, something grander in scope and ambition.
The Gullivers have been played on BBC Radio Oxford, John Kennedy's XFM Xposure show and Lamacq on Radio 1.

  2. “Slow-burning stately balladry in the Leaves vein from an Oxford trio who do intense, creeping paranoia very well. 7/10” - John Earls - Teletext
  3. "Gallons of delayed guitars drizzled all over the other worldly vocals – there’s little to compare it with...intensely interesting." - Shane Blanchard - Tasty Fanzine
