Mutya Buena: ilikemusic because... It’s something I’ve grown up listening to, I enjoy singing I don’t think I know what I’d do without music to tell you the truth. It helps me out in so many ways.
Ellen, Los Campesinos: ilikemusic because... It’s the best form of escapism that you can have wherever you are. You could be completely miserable or waiting for a bus and put on any song that inspires you and you can escape into a little world, well that’s what I tend to do anyway.
Shabee Naqvi: ilikemusic because... it takes me away from the pains in life. It's the shoulder I cry on. It's the hug I crave for. It's the smile that lightens up my day...and it pulls me by the ear to a melodious heaven on earth.
Dee Bomb: ilikemusic because... IT CONNECTS WITH YOUR SOUL TO EXPRESS EMOTION.The Twang follow a phenomenally successful 2007 with new tour dates to launch the band into 2008. After a year that has seen a Top 3 gold certified album, stand out performances at Glastonbury, T In The Park and Reading and Leeds, a critically acclaimed collaboration with Mike Skinner and a trail of rock 'n' roll moments from Birmingham to Brussels and Quinton to Kyoto, the lads head out for one more round.
The dates see The Twang visit a new set of UK towns over February reinforcing their belief in going to the people rather than making the people come to them. With their last UK tour ending in their largest ever sold out shows at Birmingham's Academy and London's Brixton Academy, these dates are an increasingly rare chance to see the band up close and personal.
