Shortlist of Unsigned Artists

Here is a shortlist of Unsigned artists that I could consider working with for producing a Promotional Package.

Call It Reckless
Similar to: Paramore, We Are The In Crowd, Tonight Alive

Call It Reckless are a 5-piece female-fronted Pop Punk band from Norwich.
Vocals: Rachael Holland. Guitar: James Harpham, Tom Griffiths. Bass: James Bussey. Drums: Marc Allum.
Singles/Music Videos: Worry About You, I Know Better
EPs: None [Exc. Demo EP on Bandcamp and iTunes Singles)
Contact: Twitter: @CallItReckless_

I've seen Call It Reckless perform live twice, firstly at Norwich Arts Centre where they supported pop punk band Neck Deep, and then again at Epic Studios, Norwich, where they were supporting Natives. At the Natives gig, I met the band afterwards, and so already have links upon which I can begin contacting them. At the time of writing this, I have emailed the band enquiring as to whether they would be willing to work with the project. Also, as they are from Norwich, I could easily contact/liase with them.

As the pictures above illustrate, this band could be a very strong candidate!

Hours
Similar to: Lower Than Atlantis, Deaf Havana, Decade

Hours are a 5-piece pop rock band from Norwich.
Vocals: Ian Badle. Guitar: Ashley Hannan, Keiran Livingstone. Bass: Rob Aiano. Drums: Ryan Nutter.
Contact: Twitter: @HoursUK
Singles: Crossfire, Casino Lights (Bandcamp)
Hours also supported Natives at Epic Studios, and despite technical difficulties, the band performed very well and impressed. They recently released the video for "Crossfire" but are still quite small. Also, being from Norwich, they are very close and so could easily be contacted.

The Afterparty
Similar to: I Divide, All Time Low, Natives

The Afterparty are a 5 piece Rock band hailing from London, who released their mini-album "Distances" in 2014. Despite having a growing fan base, of around 25K followers on Twitter, the band remain unsigned.
Vocals: Nic Matthews. Guitar: Matt Semmens, Joe Roshier. Bass: Dave Sheard. Drums: Matt Russell.
Singles: Open Road, Liar Liar
EPs: Distances
Contact: Twitter: @AfterpartyUK
Upon hearing "Open Road", I became a very big fan of this band- however, the video is very well constructed, and the band may be slightly too big already to work with, but they are still unsigned.

Hunter & The Bear
Similar To: Mumford & Sons, Passenger, City & Colour

Hunter & The Bear are a folk band from London that had great recognition with their single "Forest on the Hill", but still have a relatively small following of about 1k on Twitter. However, the band have recently been confirmed for a slot at this year's T in the Park festival on a smaller stage. The band have an infinitely uplifting vibe and are incredibly catchy.

Contact: Website and at @HunterTheBear on Twitter.

Octavians

Similar to: Drenge, The Maccabees, The Neighbourhood

Octavians are a small indie rock band from Cardiff. I've given the band promotion before on my 8tracks after talking to them on Twitter, but they have already released an EP, "From One Minute to Another", and have a new EP scheduled for release soon.

Vocals: Sam Baker. Guitar: Iuean Lewis. Bass: Zac Read. Drums: Alex Tabero.

Headroom

Similar To: Citizen, Seahaven, Basement

Headroom are a 4-piece Alternative/Indie/Emo band from Manchester. The band are touring with Pop Punk heavyweights Citizen on their UK tour, but have only released one EP and have a homemade music video for "Slung". 

Vocals/Bass: Ben. Guitar: Paolo & Roger. Drums: Ross.

Empire Nights

Similar To: The Black Keys, Ed Sheeran, Modern Baseball

Empire Nights, formerly You Are The Empire, are a 4 piece Indie Rock band from my hometown, Taverham. They have participated in a similar project before as You Are The Empire.

Vocals: Daniel Holmes. Guitar: Stokely Howard. Bass: Ed Richardson. Drums: Sam Jenkins.

Contact: Twitter: @Empire_Nights

I'm good friends with Stokely from the band, and being a local band they could be very easy to work with.

I also have a few American bands that were originally shortlisted, such as Abandoning Sunday, The Boys After, Short Stories and Old Again, but the criteria states that bands have to be British.
