Tournaments: 7″ single
Tournaments are releasing their first 7″ single debut on February 18. Boldest Colours will be on side-a, and Message Deleted will be on side-b. A demo of Boldest Colours is streaming on Myspace, along with Turn and Run and Lone Sailor. Digital downloads of the songs will be available at Yeah Ok, as well as iTunes.
Tournaments are a new band from Newport, United Kingdom. They played their first show in August, performing as a five-piece, mixing in violin, lapsteel, guitar, bass, and drums. Niamh plays the violin in the band, painting colour behind the melodies, and using the emotional instrument to push the rhythm along.
In September, 2007, Gethin Pearson shared with Puddlegum that Tournaments, “have been putting together tunes for a few months with the idea of just making a fresh pop record. We recorded them underneath a boxing club in Newport, UK and in my basement.” The hours spent writing and recording is about to pay off.
