All about White Sunday
Charting an arrow-like line straight through the mod-rock soul identity of a whole nation, White Sunday represent their own 2008 brand of pure, heartfelt, honest-to-goodness rock’n’roll wonder. Referencing Sixties rhythm’n’blues, White Sunday’s work is straight-shooting artillery rock, as blunt as a rifle butt and as targeted as a heat-seeking missile.
White Sunday’s very first gig was supporting Kasabian. From then it’s been a full-on march forward, playing a string of gigs in south England and a particularly memorable show in front of a hundred cheerleaders in Northampton.
Highlights from 2007 were many, including rapturous tents at Guilfest and Reading Festivals. National radio recognition followed with Clint Boon XFM, Radio 1’s Huw Stephens and Edith Bowman weighing in, with Edith herself selecting the boys first single '90s Hangover' to soundtrack the launch of her own website www.edithbowman.com in December 2007.
The band’s first album Why Do I Still Do This Everyday? has been produced by Dave Allen, who has worked with The Cure and The Charlatans, and by dance mixer Mark Ralph of Massive Attack and The Others (a neat combination that The Arctic Monkeys used on their latest album). It features brilliant songwriting by Mike Walton and James Glanville, "There’s a need for an exciting passionate rock’n’roll band at the moment," says Glanville. "People say ‘Why don’t you do this, do that?’. But we sound what we want to sound like. We aren’t going to change for anyone."
