The seeds of Xilla were first sewn at the end of the world, 2012, when brothers Greg and Rich Pullin along with Chris Flanagan and Pete Smyth first came together
with the intention of creating something distinct and utterly memorable.

Fast forward to 2018 and with the arrival of frontman Leigh Oates (Order of Voices,
Soldierfield, Rise to Addiction), the final piece of the Xilla puzzle was in place.

2018 saw the band work tirelessly perfecting and recording their debut album.
The band enlisted the help of John Mitchell (You Me at Six,
Architects, Enter Shikari) for his formidable mixing expertise on the piece.

Released worldwide on March 31st 2019, the critically acclaimed debut album ‘Distant Minds’ blew reviewers away, gaining great reviews in prestigious magazines such as 'Prog' and 'Powerplay' Magazine.

The album was followed up by 2 new singles in 2020 & 2021 releasing 'Live Again' & 'Cornerstone', before parting ways with Drummer, Pete Smyth. 

The band have now readied new music for release in 2024, first of which is 'Like Vultures' available worldwide 31st Jan 2024!
