About Me |
|
| Mixing trippy sixties psychedelia with a bombastic, contemporary pop sound, Modern Works are a classic mod fourpiece forged in Middlesbrough. Imagine the Small Faces catchier moments dragged kicking and screaming into the 21st century and given a high-velocity blues treatment, all draped in the archetypal regalia of the best sharp-dressing British bands needle-sharp denim, mod roundels and fringes you could sharpen a razor blade with.
With frontman Ben Fisher boasting a powerful, bluesy voice that conjures up all kinds of delirious sixties beat memories - think Eric Burdon with added sandpaper - Modern Works are set to storm the region's stages once again. |
