About The Band

Bio: ‘You say you want a revolution’ Some Velvet Morning have quietly been subverting the accepted lyrical content of the ‘indie scene’ since the release of their 2007 debut ‘Silence Will Kill You.’ With songs such as ‘Propaganda’ ‘Godless’ and ‘The Madness Of Crowds’, vocalist and guitarist Desmond Lambert does not seem content to stick with the normal pop fodder of teenage crushes and heartbreak, preferring instead subjects such as religious tolerance, western political indoctrination and McCarthyism.

Brother Gavin Lambert’s now legendary distorted bass lines, when meshed with the ‘primal’ beats of drummer Rob Flanagan (prompting ‘Total Guitar’ into enthusing that the band ’packed more clout than the Black Keys and Black Crowes on a sleaze fest bender) all add up to a power trio with no room for mediocrity.

With XFM and Radio 2 playlistings as well as several tours to Thailand, Russia and the US under their belt, Some Velvet Morning are currently completing their second album and preparing for dates with the legendary Yardbirds.

Musical comparisons to early Police and U2’s War have swelled Some Velvet Morning’s audience. A hint towards a new musical revolution can be found at www.somevelvetmorning.co.uk
