From Phil: Hello and thanks for finding me here and for taking the time to upload your tracks.  Although I occasionally visit this site, by far the best way to get your music to me is to send it to me on a CD- it's very "dial up" I know, but old fashioned kind of guy that I am I like to have a physical CD in my mitts.  If you want to send me your music, please send it to the following address:

BBC Introducing The South

Broadcasing House

Four piece Alternative band from Gosport. Colourful riffs. Thundering drum beats. Arty Bass lines

Formed in the Spring of 2013, the four part pop/alternative band from Gosport have taken influence from The Beatles, Phil Collins, The Killers and Razorlight, and have engaged a flourescent modern sound through combining the essence of 60’s pop rock with a third person take on oriental and African music. 

Pushing a palette of colourful riffs, with groovy drum beats, arty bass lines and soul searching lyrics (maybe including a bit of guitar delay), the band have been able to create a vivid but glacial atmospheric sound, which is leading them into the next generation of Alternative/Indie/Pop music..

I'm into nature, food, art and rock music. According to Kerrang!, if I had a band it would be called Coastal Hazard.
