From day one, the Reading four-piece have attracted media attention, and their constant gigging and prestigious festival appearances – not to mention album and EP releases – have earned them a well-established fan base. Their epic, sexy and polished rock sound has caught the inspiration of many a radio DJ, promoter and – most importantly – music fan. 2009 began with a string of European dates, and has seen the band play support slots for Hockey and The Charlatans, as well as at five major festivals in the South East. Consistent coverage in the local press as well as considerable air time and radio appearances thanks to BBC’s Berkshire, London and 6, and KROQ in California, have helped raise The Quotes’ profile over the last 18 months. With professional support and a loyal, dedicated street team, the only way is up.. In July 2009, at the centre of a storm of curiosity, excitement and anticipation, The Quotes released The Monte Rosa EP with two sold-out nights at one of their hometown’s most established music venues. An enormous achievement for an unsigned band, but yet another great credit to these four vastly talented young musicians. The band’s ferocious sound and slick execution defies their years. With songs and presence large enough to fill an arena, yet intimate enough to give a crowd of 300 a personal performance, The Quotes appeal is far reaching, and set for longevity. The buzz around The Quotes is quickly spreading in and around London, so look out for them playing both headline and support slots in some of London’s most popular music venues. The band have recently been in the studio recording some new tracks, have filmed their latest music video, and released it all on MySpace for everyone to enjoy
