About Me |
|
HEY! We are Furthest Drive Home from Farnham, England. Thank you so much for coming to our page and checking us out! We are currently writing new material and rehearsing for our up and coming tours and adventures! We've had a great 2008 so far, touring the country with many of our good friends such as Tellison, The Maple State, Elliot Minor and The Higher to name a few, alongside great festivals such as Slam Dunk. We also made our first trip over to the USA to play the SXSW music festival which was an amazing experience, we can't wait to come back! We're just about to set off on our summer headline tour of the UK, we cannot wait! See you on the road! Ohh and if you get a minute, if you could click the banner above and vote for us that would be amazing. You can buy our debut mini album from the links below released mid 2007 on Hungry Kid records. The CD is currently avaliable in limited edition packaging, but there aren't many left, so make sure you get one while you can! x x x x UK SUMMER HEADLINE TOUR 2008 With special guests DATA SELECT PARTY (24th June - 5th July) and KILL THE ARCADE (7th July - 28th July) JUNE 14+ TUESDAY 24th READING Face Bar Click for tickets 14+ WEDNESDAY 25th POOLE Mr Kyps Click for tickets 14+ THURSDAY 26th WESTON-SUPER-MARE The Rock Gardens Click for tickets 14+ FRIDAY 27th PETERBOROUGH The Met Lounge Click for tickets 14+ SUNDAY 29th CAMBRIDGE Man On The Moon Click for tickets 14+ MONDAY 30th SHEFFIELD The Corporation Click for tickets JULY 14+ TUESDAY 1st LEEDS The Cockpit Click for tickets 14+ WEDNESDAY 2nd WREXHAM Central Station Click for tickets 16+ THURSDAY 3rd KINGSTON The Peel Tickets on the door All Ages FRIDAY 4th ZOO THOUSAND FESTIVAL Kent Click for tickets 14+ SATURDAY 5th SOUTHAMPTON The Joiners Click for tickets 14+ MONDAY 7th BRIGHTON Freebutt Click for tickets 14+ TUESDAY 8th SWINDON 12 Bar Click for tickets 14+ WEDNESDAY 9th CARDIFF Barfly Click for tickets 14+ THURSDAY 10th MANCHESTER Music Box Click for tickets 14+ FRIDAY 11th NOTTINGHAM Rock City Click for tickets 14+ SUNDAY 13th BRISTOL Thekla Click for tickets 14+ MONDAY 14th YEOVIL Orange Box Click for tickets 14+ TUESDAY 15th DONCASTER Priory Click for tickets 14+ WEDNESDAY 16th EDINBURGH The Hive Click for tickets 14+ THURSDAY 17th ABERDEEN Cafe Drummonds Click for tickets 14+ FRIDAY 18th DUNDEE Fat Sams Click for tickets 14+ SATURDAY 19th INVERNESS Ironworks Click for tickets 14+ SUNDAY 20th GLASGOW Barfly Click for tickets 14+ MONDAY 21st STOKE-ON-TRENT The Sugarmill Click for tickets 14+ TUESDAY 22nd WOLVERHAMPTON Little Civic Click for tickets 16+ WEDNESDAY 23rd HERTFORD The Marquee Click for tickets 16+ THURSDAY 24th LONDON Water Rats Click for tickets 14+ SATURDAY 26th ALDERSHOT West End Centre Click for tickets 14+ SUNDAY 27th LUTON UBSU Sub Club Click for tickets All Ages MONDAY 28th NEWCASTLE Academy 2 Click for tickets CD : |

More infectious than rabies. FDH are definitely ones to watch. Kerrang The UK's brightest crossover hopes. Metal Hammer Magazine It seems that every teenager and his Bowie-loving Dad have been tuning in to this band's treacherously catchy songs. Isn't it about time you did too? **** Tuned Magazine This young quartet will go far. Kerrang Ridiculously catchy pop hooks. Tuned Magazine More infectious than the common cold. World domination doesn't seem far off! Shimmering melody and contagious hooks makes 'The Complete First Series' the perfect acccompaniment to life on the open road. Big Cheese Magazine FDH are big on melody and even bigger on catchy choruses: the perfect soundtrack to a US prom scene in the movies. Total Guitar Dance-Tastic! Kerrang A pop-punk force to be reckoned with. Digging into Fall Out Boy-esque starter to whet our appetites, they follow this up with an experimental sound backed by a distant disco beat thats terribly head-nod-worthy. Simple, Memorable, effective. Rock Sound Magazine A sparkling, promising outfit; emotive without the tired emo branding.
