Artist: The Overtones Album: Good Ol’ Fashioned Love Location: London
The Overtones defiantly have to be the UK’s most unique band of 2010. The five piece doo-wop boy band were discovered by a scout whilst they were working as decorators in a shop in London and were heard singing on their tea break.
Their debut album is titled ‘Good Ol’ Fashioned Love’ and it brings something original to the music scene; perhaps it may even revive the doo-wop genre. I found the album quite enjoyable to listen to and a good overall effort for a first album. It was by no means the best thing I heard this year, but it was nice to hear something different and if you’re bored of the same music or just want to hear something new then I would try this band out. The album is full of catchy tunes that I’m sure you will find yourself singing along with.
