Cinder Path formed in Sheffield in 2025, when singer, guitarist, and
songwriter Dan Whitehouse teamed up with bassist Angela Holland (Silent Age, Via Holland) and drummer Dave Timmons (Rossmann Frister, Fallen Trees).

Dan’s name is already familiar across the local and wider music scene - he first came to light with Fights, Rossmann Frister, and later Mabel Love, most recently appearing on stage as a session musician for Reverend and the Makers and Stoney.

The project began in late 2024, when Dan started recording at
Sheffield’s Broadcast Recording Studio, working with Matt and Lucy Board from the acclaimed shoegaze band Pale Blue Eyes.

The band’s sound draws comparisons to Interpol, Doves, The Cure, and other acts from the worlds of post-punk and shoegaze - a modern, emotive sound that feels both familiar and new.

Formed in the grim dark days of the latter half of the 80s, Passion-Play have always been an either/or sort of band: either Tony Nicholson is wallowing in gothic sadness or he's licking sticky-sweet cotton-candy pop from his sugar coated fingers.
They recorded a live album, a popular cassette sold at gigs, got radio play and gigs up and down the UK and they met the 90s in buoyant mood but nevertheless, one year in they split.
In the intervening years songs were written only to exist in vaporous rumour, demoed to quietly lie in sheltered darkness until 2012 came along and something incredible happened.
The original master of the live album was re-mastered and cleaned and the results were surprisingly good – so it was released for free download from their bandcamp site and made available for streaming. In a few short weeks it gained over 2000 plays prompting the band to reform. 
In rehearsals the magic was incredible as long dormant songs just sprang into life and soon they were gigging again both acoustic and electric style.
Now they are three and have new recordings (the old songs re-imagined) together with brand new as they prepare to release a new album and ep.

Somewhere between Gothic glam and post punk power pop, 
Passion-Play make real their songs of darkness and dismay. 
Charting desire, obsession, lust and murder their ouvré gives vent to all human frailties.
Give yourself up to your desires! 
Bare your neck - they promise to bite!!
