about

These Furrows are a teenage 4 piece from Leicester. Formed in December 2008 their progress has been rapid with them securing a number of enviable support slots with Fun Lovin’ Criminals, Tubelord and The Zutons.

Having formed in the affluent yet understated Leicester music scene – a scene that has bred the likes of Kyte and Maybeshewill – These Furrows take on everything from post-hardcore to post-rock to post-punk, forming a sweet/saccharine collision of sound. Such genres are about the only terms are about as close as you can come to defining a sound that is undeniably their own and unequivicably unique.

But the scene which bore them by no means hinders them, and they are fully immersed in becoming the best they can be without being held back by their surroundings : -

“The Leicester scene has always needed to expand. It’s kind of held back by the variety and quality of the venues. There are a lot of great Leicester bands, back in the day it was ruled by certain ‘indie’ bands who gain a following because of the clothes they wear and their mates rather the music, but there is a lot of talented bands and musicians who don’t have the recognition they deserve due to the ‘scene’.”
Their debut EP “Masks” was released on 10th October 2009 by Robot Needs Home Records to great acclaim, with airplay and support from Huw Stephens at Radio 1, Huey Morgan at 6 Music, and the now ever more influential blogging community.
It’s this organic growth that summons ever further those feelings that something more special is coming their way. A recent publishing deal with Bucks Music and a series of dates with the Fun Loving Criminals only enhanced such proof.
Their sound was soon to prick the ear of Tom Woodhead (Forward Russia), who iterated his desire to record the band. Their decision was swift – and obviously a categorical ‘Yes’ to do it - and a trip to Wales to record the ‘Faces’ EP followed.
‘Faces’ is due for release in July 2010, again on Robot Needs Home, with the band supporting the release with a series of shows nationwide as well as a slot on the Summer Sundae festival in Leicester.
