Maidstone and Medway’s, The Soundcasters were formed in early 2008 through a mutual love of a variety of music ranging from Latin Jazz, to 70’s Punk. As young lads, this gave them a unique edge in today’s music scene of teenage bands and with such a wide knowledge of music it took a short while to find their original sound. Their first EP had a 60’s pop feel to it that had a huge response from a mixed audience which expanded their fan base.
Having just recorded their second EP, produced by local, respected musician, Ben Jones, The Soundcasters have returned for 2010 with a more mature image, feel and sound. After having a few months off to write and record, the boys are set to return with an already busy schedule for the upcoming year, including playing at the infamous Cavern Club in Liverpool, but will kick start with their EP launch on March 12th.
The Soundcasters are influenced by such bands as, The Beatles, The Band, The Animals and newer bands like The Arctic Monkeys, which is where they developed their 60’s Indie style from.
Last year the band had a hectic summer, playing private functions, festivals including Togfest, Lounge on the Farm, and Infest, as well as filming for a Documentary on Channel 4 that is due to air around the middle of the year.
Following such an exciting first year, the buzz surrounding The Soundcasters is sure to develop and grow.
