AGITATE THE GRAVEL - HEADS DOWN FOR TAKE OFF

PRODUCED BY JOHN HOUGH & JOANNE COLLINS

Formed in early 2010 out of a love for all things pop and a growing dissatisfaction with current musical trends, Agitate the Gravel - comprising Chris Somers (vocals/guitar), Ruairi Dale (guitar/vocals), Muireann Levis (bass/vocals) and Cormac Connolly (drums) - spent a year building up an electrifying live set before beginning their onslaught on their native Cork scene.

Striking a balance between infectious riffs, celestial harmonies and sonic mayhem they take influence from past masters of many genres, citing Blur, Weezer and My Bloody Valentine as major influences.

Self produced recording efforts such as 'Interval' (featured on Drop-D.ie's 'CORK ROCK CITY' compilation) and new single 'Wilderness Years' showcase the band's keen sense of structure and melody, while live performances herald explosive energy with manic results. The band have already played alongside a wealth of great acts; the Altered Hours, Tera Melos (US), the Ambience Affair Jogging and the James Cleaver Quintet (UK) to name but a few. The Summer months will see Agitate the Gravel touring furiously, bringing their brand of shoegaze-pop to the masses.
