The Amateurs are a Midlands based band, gathering momentum on the live circuit.
Debut single 'Homesick' was released in March 2009 to positive acclaim from music critics and press alike.
The band’s debut release was particularly championed by Kerrang! Radio, BBC Introducing (Hereford & Worcs and West Midlands) and was “single of the week” on inthenews.co.uk above major label artists.
Working closely with London based Producers The Animal Farm, the band have built up a decent following both online and at their live performances, securing them support slots with Guillemots and Cage The Elephant, sponsorship from Jagermeister and have also been chosen by Oxjam to play at Leeds Festival 2009 in August.
he band are having a wonderful year and going from strength to strength whilst doing so. More information can be found at http://www.theamateurs.co.uk
