The October Game
"The October Game is the collision of different minds becoming one for the sole purpose of creating wonderfully eclectic and heartfelt music, carrying intricate and poetic lyrics that can both challenge and comfort a listener in the same breathe. Box Of A Billion Lights sees the band infusing elements of folk, classical music and electronica into an undeniably english indie rock sound. This work was predominantly performed and recorded by The October Game at their homes in Bedfordshire, their friends lending a hand with some additional performances. Box Of A Billion Lights is out now through Carmandie Records."
The October Game formed in early 2005 from the ashes of their previous band insomnia. After having written a wealth of new material in the first half of the year they decided to record an album. Summer 2006 saw the release of this, their debut album, Box Of A Billion Lights. Whilst the album is picking up fantastic reviews and being played on indie radio stations worldwide, the band are out gigging extensively bringing their dynamic live interpretations of the songs to stages all across the UK.
