Around The Bend

The Asteroids Galaxy Tour

Small Giants

WE SAY

We featured The Asteroids Galaxy Tour's The Sun Ain't Shining No More back in August – radio support was forthcoming from R1 (including plays from Jo Whiley), R2, Xfm and 6Music. Another outing for their infectious soul pop sound, this should strengthen their hold at radio. Around The Ben' has been used on the holy grail of ad syncs with Apple picking it up for their iPod Touch commercial, which is now airing worldwide and quickly picking up YouTube views as a result. A short run of shows in the US is lined up for this month, with their debut album due next year. JF London gig: November 26 Barfly NW1
