Auction for the Promise Club are a pop rock three piece with raw vitality and serious potential. They’ve already gained a decent amount of attention (including making it into the Marie Claire UK Playlist alongside Florence and the Machine and I Blame Coco) despite having only released one track so far. Now their debut EP ‘One’, recorded at London’s famed Abbey Road vows to be worth a punt.
Introduced on BBC 6 Music by Tom Robinson, on XFM by John Kennedy and on Absolute Radio by Sarah Champion the female-fronted rock band have garnered critical acclaim for their unique sound, which channels shoegaze through giant hooks and huge choruses.
2010 saw Auction for the Promise Club support Paolo Nutini and Martha Wainright at the Eden Sessions and also Reverend and The Makers. The band played at the Eden Sessions again in 2011 before Pendulum. They’ve racked up performances at some of the country’s most renowned venues, including Liverpool’s Cavern Club, The Factory/Fac251 in Manchester, Birmingham’s Gatecrasher and the ICA in London, as well as headlining a closing show at London Fashion Week, Jalouse, Mayfair.
Be sure not to miss the band’s special show at London’s 100 Club on Feb 24th which marks the release of this fantastic EP.
