Detroit Social Club

Appeared at the Isle of Wight Festival in 2010

Buzz is something of a loaded term in the music industry, one best used with caution. But to say things have happened ridiculously quickly for Newcastle sextet Detroit Social Club wouldn't quite be telling the whole story.

They might recently have been anointed by Kasabian's Tom Meighan as the new saviours of British guitar music, but it was actually well over a year ago that David Burn started writing songs alone in his studio/practice room 'The Garage' and set tongues wagging hastily in his native North East.

It was never Burn's intention to bring them to a wider audience initially, though that's the inevitable path Detroit Social Club now tread. Songs like already-traditional set closer 'Sunshine People' and 'Rivers and Rainbows' demand it.

Video - Kiss the Sun

Detroit Social Club are: David Burn (vocals/guitar/bass), Johnny Bond (guitar/sitar), David Welsh (guitar), Dale Knight (keys/guitar/bass), Chris McCourtie (bass/guitars), David Green (drums/percussion)
