Ice Black Birds have been receiving plenty of support across the BBC airwaves, with Radio 1’s Huw Stephens tipping the band for big things in 2010 and going on to contact the various regional stations across the BBC network, introducing the band.
The demo of As Birds We’d Be Fine was subsequently played across the country and was also aired on BBC 6 Music’s Tom Robinson new artist introduction slot.
Ice Black Birds are described as an edgy blues influenced outfit from Brighton via London. They draw influence from 60s and 70s rock ‘n’ roll via Zeppelin, Deep Purple and Sabbath but seem set to bring forth a unique and fresh burst of modern indie blues back into the industry not unlike acts White Denim, The Black Keys, Royal Bangs and early Kings of Leon…but different.
Forming from the ashes of old London, Sheffield and Scottish bands, the energy created on stage by this band is second to none. With catchy songs that maintain their own dignity, they are most definitely one to watch for 2010 and beyond.
Ice Black Birds were hand picked by the likes of Golden Slivers, Joe Gideon and The Shark, Wave Machines, Goldhawks, Post War Years and We Have Band to support them on tour and have played at reputable venues across the whole of the UK.
The band played one of the main stages at 2009’s Secret Garden Party and the main stage at Farm Festival and the White Air Festival in the same year.
The Ice Black Birds debut single Ear To The Ground is released on March 29th.
The band are currently coming to the end of a UK tour, but can be seen at their Single Launch Parties in London and Brighton at the following venues:
29 Mar 2010

1 Apr 2010
