The Mexanines

'The Mexanines are a three piece, bluesy indie/rock band from Bradford, combining big riffs and flowing melodies with toe tapping beats to get the audience moving. They've played a whole host of venues like the Bingley Music Live Festival 2010, The Factory in Manchester, and The O2 Academy Leeds; It was here in fact the band won a competition that confirmed their slot on the BBC Introducing Stage at Leeds and Reading 2011.' - BBC Introducing at Reading & Leeds Festival 'The Mexanines opened the BBC Introducing stage on Sunday with a groovy-laden, 70s rock'n'roll inspired set, complete with leather jackets and just enough swagger to convince the early-risers gathered round the stage.' - The Reading Chronicle 'Next up were the incredible Mexanines, who held so much swagger you would be forgiven for thinking they were playing a headline slot. Front man James Brander did much to secure the attention of the females in the crowd and had them swooning over every word, but every member of this band really does have stage presence in abundance. With a sound that fits somewhere between Kings of Leon Southern rock and good-old British indie-rock, they inspire a uniquely-enjoyable, foot-tapping experience.' - Carpe Musica 'Bluesy indie/rock as tight as their jeans' - Bang The Drum Magazine Biography Booking: themexanines@live.com
