Second Storey Window began on a Thursday. They formed with one purpose: to make music which is both audible and sonic in nature. Based in Sydney, Australia, the music they make would be best described as a kind of purply orange.

Some say 'Second Storey Window' is a reference to the glass panel that was broken during a team bonding basketball game. Others theorise it is an existential metaphor which references the perpetual flux of culture underpinned by the  constant of human nature. "It sounds like one of those names you see on the  street posters," offered band front-man Andrew when asked.  "What's in a name though?" Countered guitarist Reuben, "A rose, by any other name, would be just as pointy."

SSW released their second EP 'Trip The Wire' in June 2013 and will soon be appearing at a venue near you. Relatively speaking that is, and assuming that you live on earth.

Tommy Coyle is an indie-folk rock-singer-songwriter from York, England. 

Tommy put out an album in April 2020 called "Incomplete Control" which was a collection of songs written over a ten year period from 2010-2020.

Tommy will be releasing another album soon called "Medical misinformation". This is a protest songs album and most of the songs can be heard on the "protest songs" playlist on this soundcloud site.

Tommys songs have been compared to artists such as Jackson Browne, Bright Eyes, Arctic Monkeys, Ryan Adams, Elliott Smith, Sufjan Stevens, Frank Turner, Glasvegas and The Longpigs. Like these artists he writes lyrically driven songs with strong, simple melodies delivered with passionate vocals.

Reviews of "Incomplete Control" album....

"A great songwriter is among us. An honest and thoughtful lad from York. Tommy tells is it how it is and then thinks of things that we’d missed and chucks them at us too. Lyrics that are always immediately touching and provoking are spliced with simply brilliantly simple melodies that you end up singing the next day. Class I tells ye"  - Pigeon Tree

"Everyday stories and pains of the heart shot through with dry humour and raw emotion.....utterly compelling"  - The Sandman

Excellent songs...the opening brace of "Ahmed", simply stated but powerful, and the lyrically incisive "Without Kids To Grow", make for an impressive introduction, as does the insightful "Everybody Loves Ya" -R2 Magazine

"Definitely worth losing an hour for"  - Beardrock.com
