Among others

Another brilliant band shortlisted for our  £5,000 music give away competition is 'Among others'.

Forming in 2010, Among Others are a six-piece alternative rock band from Cardiff, South Wales. The band consists of Sam Wright on vocals, Justin Crowe and Ross Knight on guitars, Adam Knight on bass, Liam Atwood on keys and Stephen Symmonds on drums. Influenced by the likes of Kids in Glass Houses, You me at Six and the Blackout, their sound fuses together catchy ‘stuck in your head’ pop melodies and hooks with punchy riffs, stunning guitar solos and a raw rock energy that, combined with the electronic feels brought through on keys, makes for a winning formula guaranteed to get any crowd bouncing. Among Others have played in venues across South Wales and reached the semi-finals of the UK battle of the bands. A particular highlight for the band so far was their track ‘There’s no hope’ winning an award for best contemporary composition and then being played on BBC Radio Wales after it was nominated to be ‘single of the week’. Among Others are looking to gain more media exposure and to put on more headline shows around the UK to showcase their talent and bring their music to new fans. The band is hoping to take the music scene by storm as the next big thing to come out of Wales and won’t stop until they do.
