The Wychbury Cartel first took shape in 2012, as Alec and Simon were both introduced into Lucas and Connor’s band at the time. From Easter 2012, the full line up was established. After a summer of practising material they successfully signed to MAS Records, and as a result, began to gig around the local area in the months following. The Wychbury Cartel has created it’s own following, ranging from late 60 year olds, to 12 year olds. It’s very hard to put a finger on the music they play, some songs reviving the energy of early Led Zeppelin, others reaching into the realms of jazz, Latin and folk music. As well as producing original music, The Wychbury Cartel has adopted a very recognizable 1920’s ‘printing press’ style in their art. By prioritizing efforts in creating a unique image, alongside unique music, The Wychbury Cartel has succeeded in creating a highly sophisticated profile, something that this day in age, is a rarity. 

Threenil was started in September 2011 by drummer Ric Yarborough. Drawing inspiration from bands such as Mark Guiliana's Beat Music, Alasnoaxis, Octurn and Lidlboj, the group are also hugely influenced by Minimalism, Metal and Post Rock.

The band have already released their first E.P. and their debut album will be available later this year after being signed by Pinkhaus records in Birmingham. You can follow Threenil on Facebook or Twitter to find out more
