A new band are emerging. Get ready to be excited!
Natives are a pop/rock band from The New Forest, Southampton who were formally know as ‘Not Advised’ but changed their name to ‘Natives’ at the start of 2012 creating (in their words) "a new and fresh start!".
The band consist of Jim Thomas the front man, Jack Fairbrother and Ash Oliver on guitar, Greg Day on bass and last but not least Andy White on the drums. As a 5 piece they work together and give “20% each” to create their inspiring lyrics full of pure passion.
They have recently supported Mayday Parade alongside The Summer Set which really helped to define their sound further and bring their message out to many more people. This touring experience should really help them to create the name for themselves they deserve.
In December they are going on a quick tour of their own in the UK to London, Southampton, Manchester, Glasgow and Birmingham playing material from their upcoming debut album. Seeing them live is something I’m definitely going to try to do!
So give them a try and check out the band’s latest self-released single – This Island. If you’re a fan of Deaf Havana then I’m sure you won’t be disappointed!
