The Marianas and Frontrunners: young bands budding...
Rural Music Network Tour @ Cheese & Grain, Frome, 23rd June 19: The bands
Two young bands and two guitarists to savour.......
The Marianas played tight original Indie/Rock and they have one funky, vibrant guitarist in Sam Allan and I love his style and action..with upbeat "feel good" rhythms interspersed with his perfectly crafted solos....the band connect well together and their songs, delivered by vocalist Chloe Richards, are catchy, with the keyboards of Theo West adding the extra dimension........
The Frontrunners are a four piece Indie/Rock band with emotive but catchy original songs and they have played live regularly around Frome and more recently at the Fleece in Bristol. Another tight band with a very different style, Frontrunners have a confident front man with laid back vocals, a flowingly played bass, solid drumming and all beautifully enhanced by yet another stylish guitarist with an impressive capability that exudes feeling to give soaring and exciting solo's....
