Eades

NME’s ones to watch, Eades, combine the creative values of Wilco, Sonic Youth and Sparklehorse, with the immediacy of The Velvet Underground and The Clash. Eades have evolved over years of continually touring around the UK and Europe, finely poised between indie rock and alternative 90s. Their tight self-produced sound is glued together by the vocal swapping and storytelling partnership of Harry Jordan and Tom O’Reilly. The narrative of the band has crystallised into a winning calling-card, both epic and intimate, capturing the emotional turbulence of finding your place in a world that’s constantly shifting beneath your feet. This ‘build it and they will come’ approach has already seen enviable successes and support from the likes of NME, DIY, DORK, The Guardian, international radio stations and Abbey Road Studios. Stand-out sets at Rolling Stone Beach, Left Of The Dial and The Great Escape, amongst other tastemaker festivals, mark out the band as serious contenders. HUNGER magazine photoshoot with iconic photographer, Rankin, contributes to their arsenal of collaborations. No longer green to the industry and working on their own terms - Eades are putting theory into practice. Comfortable in their own skin and taking the wins as they come. There’s no lack of ambition to take their riveting concoctions to the masses. All of this is beholden to a quietly confident maturation, that speaks to a band in complete control.
