Fresh back from a mini-tour of the States after being hailed as this years Leeds 'Bright Young Things 2007', The Touch are on a rock n roll mission with some great new records soon to be released and a video on it's way, as well as numerous U.K festival appearances. So hold on to your hats, and don't look down!

The Touch create a live sound that belies their member count of 3, with George's huge valve-driven vintage tone, Jason's renowned big beat pounding, and Andy's thumping Entwistle-esque lead-bass style. Despite this volatile energy of their live performances they possess a mature dynamic ability that is rarely seen in today's 'indie' music scene; (In the words of Jimmy Page: "It's all about light and shade.")

They completed their first UK tour in Summer 2006 which took them from Scotland to London stopping off at some great venues on the way including; The ABC-Glasgow, The Boardwalk-Sheffield, Fibbers-York, The Night & Day-Manchester, The Cockpit-Leeds and The Dublin Castle-London. They have shared the stage with We Are Scientists, Milburn, The Pigeon Detectives, Wolf & Cub, Hey Gravity! (Dodgy), The Lovers (Inspiral Carpets/The Fall), Denny Laine (Wings/Moody Blues), Robbers on high street (NYC), even MC Devvo & Shady Piez (it's true!) and many more established artists.

They are now in need of a manager and record company backing so if you are interested give us a shout.

Howdy!

Just wanted to pop in and give you a heads up on Sommersby's October Competition!

If you haven't already heard, the competition (hot on the heels of his recent neck-in-neck September fiesta) will offer 20 parts for the winner and is open to all artists that have $9999 or less in budget on 25 October.

This is a great opportunity for you. Let all your believers know you'd like to be nominated and encourage them to vote for you when the time comes.

Of course, if you'd like to, or you know someone who would like to, donate to the prizes in the Competition, just send (or have them send) Sommersby the details under a message marked “October Donation."

Hope you join in on the fun and GOOD LUCK TO YOU!!!!
