The Twang

About the Event

This event is promoted by The Venue, Derby LIVE are pleased to act as a ticket agent.

The Twang will be playing a one-off show in Derby this July before the Ocean Colour Scene shows in Birmingham.

The Twang were formed in 2004 in Birmingham by singer Phil Etheridge and bassist Jon Watkin under the name Neon Twang. Inspired by guitar bands such as Oasis as well as "Madchester" acts like Happy Mondays, they were created as a reaction to the dance music that was sweeping the UK at the time.

Most recognised for their big guitars and emotional swagger of Brit-pop with a subtle but clearly felt dance-friendly pulse, the Twang have quickly risen to fame and have developed a reputation for melodic but straightforward guitar-based rock and an unpretentious approach.
