ABOUT
Doodlebugs are Aaron Best (Singer/songwriter and guitar) and Ben Hunter (Guitar, vocals and production)
Pitching themselves somewhere between Babyshambles and Spacemen 3 the lads mix melodic and insightful vocals, folk/rock guitaring and a little bit of northern swagger...
Playing both acoustic sessions and full band gigs with the assistance of talented (and unpaid) session musicians hand picked from a group of bohemian friends...
Despite being together for a relatively short time, Doodlebugs are currently in the process of recording a 12 track début album due for release early March 2011 through Train Records

'Perfectly balanced between art and attitude Doodlebugs fuse an diverse mix of avant garde folk and British rock with dark and poetic musings from mercurial and possibly chemically fuelled front man Aaron Best; Creating music that's leaving the Sheffield scene thinking "Arctic who?",' - Loic Tuckey, Made in Sheffield Magazine

Careless Talk (Costs Lives)
Careless Talk (Costs Lives) Track number: 1 Year: 2010 Album: Careless Talk E.P. Genre: Alternative
A very, very, very rough demo of one of our "lighter," songs... we've since grown a pair and become slightly more rock n roll...
