Formed in 2013, Bristol trio Candy Darling's thrilling live performances have been cutting a swathe through the West Country and beyond.

Front Woman Emily Breeze's rock and roll sensibility and transgressive lyrical themes are supported by lead guitarist Rob Norbury's unique visceral guitar style and keyboard player Adam Coomb's brooding synths and trashy electronic drums. Their debut single "Money" was released in 2014 leading to BBC radio airplay and resoundingly positive press coverage. Follow up single "Going Straight" produced Gordon Raphael (The Strokes/Regina Spektor) is due for release in May 2014.

“Candy Darling have hit the figurative tinderbox. Sounding as menacing as Suicide, their Martin Rev inspired keyboards support Emily Breeze's lyrics which are every bit as tortured as a Lou Reed/Trent Reznor hybrid" (N.M.E)

“The most fun you ever had whilst being told to go f**k yourself, mean assed, fizzing with electricity and winningly confident.” (Artrocker)

"Emily Breeze is a bona fide star. Her is intense musical vision is a jaw dropping experience" (louder Than War)

"Fabulous" (Simon Raymonde, Amazing Radio/Cocteau Twins/Bella Union)

"Proper thrilling dark pop music" (BBC Radio Wales)

"Oppressive, driven, intoxicating. The incandescent Candy Darling bristle with so much menace, the whole place might just go up in flames"
(BBC Introducing)
