Formed in the Summer of 2003 The Loop have steadily established themselves as a no-frills guitar based power trio playing gutsy, melodic, powerful songs with a simplistic ‘in yer face’ approach. Martin draws on life experiences when writing the songs and refuses to envelop them in sugary, stereotypical coatings for the masses to conform. Darren & Ian provide the tight driving force behind this unique, refreshing and energetic collaboration. 

 With debut Album ‘Game Over’ available from I-tunes, ‘the difficult’ 2nd Album ‘Shame’ getting glowing reviews prior to it’s release and the third album, Lost Weekend released on Detour Records' Paisley Archive label The Loop are looking to steadily claim more converts by gigging extensively on the mod and scooter scene. Keep an eye out and catch them when you can. 

 If they send you home with your ears ringing and a smile on your face then The Loop have done their job!! But if you passionately love what you do and that passion shows, it’s not really a job anyway, is it? 



As they say on Buzzcocks, 'Currently working on new material'. Google translates to 'of no interest to record companies'.
