It is this remote corner of the South West of the UK that the three members of Tuesday Syndicate call home, and where they played their first low key shows in 2013. The lads are Sam Mayo, lead vocals/lead guitar, Ed Humphrey, drums and percussion and Kristian Thompson Winn on keyboards/guitar, brought together through a shared passion for surfing and outdoor coastal life. The indie/rock trio have been likened to Frank Turner, Mumford and Sons (new ‘Wilder Mind’ sound), Catfish and The Bottlemen and more.
At the forefront of Devon’s thriving music scene, with a firm foothold across Exeter and Bristol, Tuesday Syndicate have taken their show on the road playing London dates at the Borderline, The Forum and finishing up at Shepherds Bush Empire in December 2016. Tuesday Syndicate have garnered big stage experience, joining Bastille and Xavier Rudd in the line up at Gold Coast Ocean Fest, and performing at the Isle Of Wight Festival on the same bill as Biffy Clyro, Red Hot Chilli Peppers and Kings of Leon. This year the band have headlined the UMA’s Horizon Showcase in August at The Hospital Club, will support Hunter & The Bear and another showcase at Omera on December 3rd.
This year the band have been recording in London, working with producer Jamie Evans (who has just finished working with Wildwood Kin on their debut album), the new material maintains a keen eye on songwriting craft boosted by melodic pop rock sensibility akin to Bears Den and the Hunna. They have tapped into a sound with wide appeal tied to their Devon roots; anthemic tunes that depict intimate and reflective moments. There are new boys on the beach.
The band have a fervent urgency and determination in their music that not only reflects the emotional potency of their lyrical output, but is also an indication of their desire to be heard by a far wider audience in larger venues. Having done numerous festival dates in the South West over the Summer, Tuesday Syndicate are well on their way to becoming an act which, similar to their home town, will be a secret gem that just about everyone seems to know about.
