Gravy Train presents:
EADES
Entry Requirements: 18+
Combining the creative values of Wilco, Sonic Youth and Sparklehorse with the immediacy of The Velvet Underground and The Clash. Eades have adapted and evolved over the last couple of years - continually touring around the UK, as well as over the shores into Europe. Finely poised between indie rock and alternative 90’s. Their tight self-produced sound is glued together by the songwriting and vocal swapping partnership of Harry Jordan and Tom O’Reilly. The story-telling approach of their writing has crystallised into a winning calling-card.
This ‘build it and they will come’ approach has already seen enviable successes. Photoshoots with iconic photographer Rankin for HUNGER, shout outs from The Guardian, live sessions at Abbey Road Studios, and stand-out sets at Left Of The Dial and The Great Escape, amongst other tastemaker festivals, mark the band out as serious contenders.
No longer green to the industry - and working on their own terms - Eades are putting theory into practice. Comfortable in their own skin, and taking the wins as they come, there’s no lack of ambition to take their riveting concoctions to the masses. All of this is beholden to a quietly confident maturation that speaks to a band in complete control.
