This City Limits is a rock band from Sheffield, England, formed in January 2013. The band draws influence from a contemporary wave of American punk rock that includes bands such as Rise Against, Polar Bear Club and Against Me!, and from British groups such as We Are The Ocean and Mallory Knox. The music is characterised by loud, aggressive drumming, distorted guitars and melodic vocals.

The band consists of lead vocalist Will Turner, lead guitarist George Turner, drummer Sam Hamer, and bassist Ed Thornton. Having played separately for a number of years, brothers Will and George came together in 2013 to form This City Limits with childhood friend Ed. After a long and fruitless search for a permanent drummer, they asked Sam to come in and play session whilst they were recording. From the very first run through, it was obvious that he was the perfect fit, and he was asked to stay on permanently. For the next 12 months, the band played countless local shows as they worked on their live sound. 

Following the encouraging reception of their debut E.P. Brittle Brass & Broken Bone (Oct 2013), the band began work on a follow up. The first of two singles, ‘Amputate’, was release in April 2014 along with an accompanying video. The track was well received by critics, and signaled a new stage of development for the band as they garnered attention from national press and radio. The second single, ‘Colourblind’, comes out on 13 July 2014, with the E.P. set for release in October.
