‘UNDOUBTEDLY THE MIDLANDS HOTTEST BAND AT THE MOMENT’ (Midlands Rocks)
MDM have cemented their reputation as a class live act since being crowned Wolverhampton LIVE BAND OF THE YEAR in 2007.
MDM released their first EP titled EVA in 2010 to widespread acclaim and gained positive reviews in magazines/webzines such as METAL HAMMER, POWERPLAY, BLACK VELVET MAGAZINE and MIDLANDS ROCKS, whilst gaining airplay on several national radio stations including KERRANG!, TBFM, TOTAL ROCK RADIO and PHOENIX RADIO in the UK and FOX FM in the USA.
The EP proved to be a catalyst for MDM and quickly pushed them onto bigger events with SOLD OUT shows for Kerrang! DJ, ‘Live UK Magazine’ and ‘Pure Rawk’ Promoter of the Year EMMA SCOTT in Wolverhampton and Birmingham and also winning coveted support slots with SONIC SYNDICATE, AMPLIFIER and VOODOO JOHNSON. A full UK Tour followed including headline shows in London, Bradford and Stoke.
In between writing their eponymous debut album released in 2011; the band continued to tour the UK, headlining shows in London, Birmingham, Leeds, Plymouth and Dublin and took part in their first summer festivals. MDM also had the privilege of playing at the Live Forum at the LG ARENA before ALTER BRIDGE.
MDM finished 2011 with the record ticket sales for the year with top Birmingham Promoters Emma Scott Presents and The Catapult Club whilst also earning a nomination for BAND OF THE YEAR at the PURE RAWK AWARDS 2012. The band also recorded their debut video for the single PROTECT WHAT’S YOURS.

Another performance at the LG Arena Forum followed; this time with GUNS N’ ROSES before the band undertook a third UK Tour before the eagerly awaited release of two new singles MEMENTO and CONTAGION in December 2012. MDM were crowned Best British Band at the annual Zing Awards through Amazing Radio beating Heaven's Basement to the accolade, and were also nominated for Best British Band at the TBFM Radio Awards.
MDM spent 2013 writing and recording new music, still finding the time for two more appearances at the LG Arena in support of AVENGED SEVENFOLD and their heroes BLACK SABBATH.
The album IMPERA; Produced by Romesh Dodangoda (Motorhead, Funeral for a Friend and Sylosis) was released on in April 2014 to massive acclaim; peaking at no 8 in the Amazon download charts and receiving outstanding 10/10 reviews from a host of national webzines and a 9/10 review from POWERPLAY. The release was followed by a full UK Tour including a headline show at Wolverhampton’s Wulfrun Hall which saw the band play to more than 800 people; a turnout unheard of for a local self-promoting independent band! The single and video ‘Influence & Persuasion’ achieved heavy rotation on national radio and reached no 24 on KERRANG! RADIO.
MDM then toured the UK with THE MERCY HOUSE, and returned to the Wulfrun Hall to support Grammy Award nominated band Skillet as well as being invited back to Birmingham’s LG Arena Forum to play in support of BLACK STONE CHERRY and SLASH.
In late 2014 MDM decided to become a self-signed band and unleashed their label Eagle Two Records. The album IMPERA is due for re-release on 20th April 2015. The crowds are gathering!








Formed out of the ashes of Toxic Federation, Fahran have had their current line-up since March 2012 after setting out under the new name.

They released their self-produced, self-titled debut album after just 6 months together, to great reviews. Whilst still retaining melodic sensibilities, the band decided that a new name warranted a change of direction, hence a much darker, heavier and far more mature sound.

In the 12 months that the band has been together, Fahran have enjoyed success as the openers on the debut I AM I tour in October 2012 (ZP ex-Dragonforce’s new melodic rock venture), plus supported UK rock troubadours, Heaven’s Basement in Feb 2013. In addition to this, the band appeared at BT London Live in London’s Hyde Park as part of the London 2012 celebrations and have made appearances at prestigious festivals such as Bloodstock and Download Festival.

After suffering a set-back in the form of Bass player Alex Stroud and Singer Nick Whitcroft having to step down from the band, Fahran have only become stronger. Having drafted Josh Ballantyne (ex bass player for This Is Two) and Matt Black (ex singer for Serpentine) things are running full steam ahead.

The band are currently writing songs for their 2nd album and will no doubt be playing as many shows as they can, honing their sound and performance further and beyond their years.

This is a band that has worked for all they have achieved, leaving them with a seasoned gravitas. Fahran continue to forge a sound far greater than the sum of their parts that is redolent of no one and is entirely their own.

Alternative Singer/songwriter from Leicester currently working on a 3rd studio album 'Music for the soul' with The Dedbeats.
