Bar Stool Preachers

Described as having just about everything we should all be looking for in our music. It's edgy, new and above all different... are Brighton's ska-infused, street punk inspired five piece the perfect antidote for all the run of the mill, industry standard apathy we see in modern music?

Well according to the success they've had so far, the words of critics, and packed out shows across the UK and mainland Europe, they might just be.

A band whose songs can stay in your head after just one listen and have you smiling throughout, they have been described as having all the energy of The Specials in their heyday, which is a fair summary of a band who embrace the original 2-tone sound, whilst adding a fresh modern twist, and throwing in some reggae, dub and hardcore for good measure. Witty observational lyrics and a heavy dose of perfectly honored punk influences such as The Clash, Rancid, and Cock Sparrer, (front man T.J. McFaull is the son of Cock Sparrer's Colin McFaull and has been described as a whirlwind of charisma) mean you are guaranteed a good night when the Preachers play.
