Description

Hardwicke Circus is the first roundabout you hit when you drive into Carlisle, a fitting moniker for a band that is putting the Cumbrian town on the musical map.



Fresh-faced veterans of over 700 gigs, they recall 1980s Neil Young ? who they?ve supported at London?s Hyde Park. Frontman Jonny Foster blends Elvis Costello, Joe Strummer and Bruce Springsteen; the fabulously named Lewis Bewley-Taylor plays every instrument that ever-contained keys; and Andy Phillips expertly blows flute, tenor and baritone saxophones.

?

They play indie rock with a confident swagger that manages to channel the post Altamont malevolence of the Stones, and the broodiness of The Doors into a modern indie vibe a la Futureheads and Vampire Weekend
