Official YouTube channel of British eclectic pop/rock band - Magazine Gap
About Me:
We're a British band with what we call "eclectic pop/rock" songs, in fusing together a range of genres. The four of us come from very different musical backgrounds and decided to create something new by merging flavours. Whilst keeping a consistent and distinct sound, we also try to do something different with every song - check out the various videos here to see what we mean.
Since forming in 2009 we decided to do it 'old school' with a modern twist - we have taken our music on the road and tried out our new songs, whilst at the same time reaching out to people through social networks such as YouTube -- if you are reading this, then you are a very important person to us in our endeavours!
Our two US tours to date have taken us from the East Coast to the Mid-West, and from the Gulf Coast and the West Coast. We entered major recording studios in London, New York, Chicago, New Orleans, Houston and Los Angeles, and 'kept it real' by working with great session musicians, including a percussionist, brass trio and string quartet.
