Shooting Pigeons: a four piece alternative band whose sound can be described as “Joy Division fighting Pink Floyd, umpired by the Ramones”. Manchester locals, their well-received 1st EP 'City of Peace' drew attention from local radio and promotors, securing them a place on the local gig circuit, allowing them to showcase their unique, honest and original musical offerings.

Their second EP 'Building Romans' is due for release on the 24th February 2014, and is a step forward technically and creatively. The band build upon their musical strengths to create a more considered and diverse second offering, showing influences from Pavement to Curtis Mayfield, reflecting the band-members wide musical backgrounds. Clear-cut, precise drum grooves form a solid foundation to their sound, complemented by powerful yet fluid bass lines that lock tight to give an agile, but forceful rhythm section. Layered with delicate guitar textures that flow into angular, driving riffs, the songs are polished with simple yet striking guitar melodies, and emotionally honest, heartfelt lyrics, to give a final product worth listening to for anyone with an open mind and a curious ear. The songs transcend imitation or trend-chasing, resulting in original, unique and enthralling alternative music.
