Violet Gang Lpool: Thunder and the Giants + Graces // EBGBs

Violet Gang Liverpool presents Thunder and the Giants with support from Graces and more TBA at EBGBS on Sunday 26th May. £6 ADV // £8 OTD. 

★ Thunder and the Giants ★

TATG are a four-piece alternative rock band from Liverpool, bringing noise to the indie-beaten streets of their hometown. They draw influence from 90s alt rock greats like Weezer, Feeder and Placebo, but also add a modern day tinge from the likes of Modern Baseball, Dinosaur Pile-Up and Rozwell Kid.

In a short amount of time, they’ve made waves, surpassing 3K streams through their demos on SoundCloud and breaking through on Spotify with their debut EP Polaroid Memories.

★ Graces ★

Based on an endearment for neon teen cinema and a love of youthful exuberance, Graces combine ambient soundscapes, distorted guitars and recognisable pop sensibilities. The band spent their formative years in the rural Lake District before relocating to South Yorkshire two years ago. 

Breaking out of the four walls of their post-industrial rehearsal space in Sheffield, the band have toured their live show around the country, playing packed-out venues in Sheffield, London, Manchester and almost everywhere in between. The melancholy prowess of the band embraces the volatility of growing up, finds the dirt and celebrates it. 

Whilst sharing stages with Feeder, The Amazons, Black Honey, Fickle Friends and King No-One, the band have worked with producer Phil Gornell (Bring Me The Horizon, All Time Low, 5SOS) and were lauded by the mainstream music press. After a busy festival season which included performances at Tramlines, Kendal Calling and Y Not Festival, a new EP is set for release in 2019 with the band announcing their biggest ever headline shows.

+ Special Guests TBA
