The Lines Debut Tour

By: YME Team 2008.01.17

Wolverhampton four piece The Lines sold out their 18th December date at the Civic Hall months in advance, so not to disappoint fans who weren’t lucky enough to snap up tickets, the band have announced a new date in 2008 at the 1200 capacity Wulfrun Hall. The Wulfrun Hall show takes place on February 23rd, with the download version of debut single 'Domino Effect’ available on Feb 24th and good old-fashioned shop copies to be picked up in store on Feb 25th. The B-Side to 'Domino Effect’ will be 'Tie Me Up In Knots’,. already a firm favourite with the growing legion of fans at the bands live shows.

Comparisons have been made to many a great bands of the past, most notably the sonic guitar histrionics of The Verve, but with influences stretched from Radiohead to The Rapture, The Lines deliver their songs with masses of energy and depth. It’s the amazing single-minded belief, coupled with an explosive live sound and songs with timeless melodies, that point to Alex (vocals) Chris (Bass) Ryan (Drums) and Dean (Guitar) being destined for big things in 2008.

News of sold out local shows quickly spread to promoters up and down the country, and invitations came to support artists such as The Twang, Editors, Jack Penate, The Holloways, Babyshambles, Little Man Tate and The Maccabees to name just a few.
