About
Cornish Indie-Punks The Velvet Hands blend slacker story-telling and belting guitar riffs reminiscent of The Strokes or contemporaries such as The Vaccines, or Parquet Courts with rousing punk choruses that recall The Clash.
Described by The NME as “full of bolshy spirit”, the band’s self-recorded debut album went on to be Huw Stephens Radio 1 Album of the Week. Of that album, Radio X DJ John Kennedy said, “Every single they’ve released is an instant hit as far as I’m concerned”.
Part of Cornwall’s blistering garage-rock scene, and now a focal point of London’s underground guitar scene, the band in 2019 supported both Paul Weller and Liam Gallagher, (at The Eden Project, chosen by the great one himself), headlined stages at The Isle of Wight Festival and Why Not.
