We had the idea to write and record a track in a day at our rehearsal space which was then sent to our producer Rory Attwell to mix and master. It’s the first in a series of tracks that will be written and released this way over the coming months. It will build to an EP that will be released next year.

Available to download from crosswires.bamdcamp.com and streaming everywhere from Friday 6th November.

Cross Wires are an East London based four piece consisting of Jonathan Chapman (vocals) Peter Muller (guitar/vocals) Matt Lazard (bass) and Ian Clarke (drums)

The debut full length album from the band ‘A Life Extinct’ was released on Culture War Records ‪on Friday 1st November‬ on Vinyl as well as digitally. 

It was recorded at Kluster Rooms in Limehouse, East London and produced by Rory Attwell (The Vaccines, Telegram, Traams, Palma Violets, The Goa Express)

The second LP ‘Yesterday In Mourning’ was released on 5th May 2022. Again produced by Rory Attwell. It received great reviews and Radio plays from Louder Than War, Artrocker, Radio X and Amazing Radio.
