Hi guys! This is my new-ish band. I'm not sure I've mentioned them before! I hope you like us!
All the best,
Dom

stickybackplastics are all about about dark, bluesy, heavy hooks with a noise-rock undertone.Listen to current single ‘Psycho Dreamer'!
LISTEN ON SOUNDCLOUD! :)
Grinding riffs, brooding basslines. Epic vocals. Music to make your hair stand on end. The York-based alt-blues four-piece are Roz Walker (guitar) and Heather Niven (vocals), Max Watt (bass) alongside Dom Smith on drums.
Citing their influences as Garbage, PJ Harvey and Portishead, the band are “driven by a shared desire to create great guitar and blues-driven rock music that emotes any type of emotion in the listener”. Roz and Heather met at a way-too-grown-up garden party in deepest North Yorkshire, and quickly realised they had a great synergy for all things creative.
The band came together with a simple desire to create music to soundtrack the world’s best and worst heartbreaks.
Vocalist Heather says: “There is something instant, forceful and immediate about singing, there is an excitement and passion like nothing I get from painting. Have you ever had goosebumps from looking at a painting? Music reaches a different part of you.”
Roz and Heather have been working together as artists for a number of years before their began exploring their collective musical potential. The track on the debut EP were built by Roz a number of years ago, and they’d been looking for a drummer to turn their work into a proper band. Following a number of meetings over the years between Heather and disabled entrepreneur Dom Smith within York’s vast creative network, a friendship grew that led to him becoming the drummer and perfecting the trio. Bassist Max Watt completed the line-up at the end of 2014.
‘Reptil Smile’, their second EP comes out on 27 March – more coming soon.
Their debut EP was released in June 2014, a self-titled introduction to stickybackplastics recorded at The White Rooms, York, UK, is available here on Bandcamp (http://stickybackplastics.bandcamp.com, fans just need to name their price).
