Biography:

Formed in leeds in 2008, Sound of sirens have spent the last two years building up a reputation as a stellar live band. with catchy, pop infused songs with a heavier, edgy undercurrent, the band have been fortunate to perform all over the U.K, and have had significant radio airplay. having just completed their first UK tour, the band are now working on their debut album,

Press:

“their showmanship is unquestionable and the atmosphere throughout their set is something pretty special. They sound a little like Fugazi and a little like Fighting With Wire owing a lot sound wise to late 90s chart rock which leads to a great deal of arms raised aloft and even a mid-set mock striptease from front-man Rob. It is obvious that Sound Of Sirens are a band who thrive in a live setting and they make the most of this evening. It is easy to be cynical about this kind of music but their performance is laden with hooks and singalongs and it is impossible not to feel involved as they end the evening with an onstage group hug to rapturous applause.”
Leeds Music Scene

“Next up was Sound Of Sirens, A local band who have incessantly gigged for the last couple of years. This really came across in their performance, as they electrified the crowd with a storming set. with the 500 capacity room now almost full, Sound of Sirens were a joy to watch, each member giving everything that they had as they entertained the crowd. The set had everything from upbeat rock tracks, to the surprisingly reflective acoustic track titled Unexpected, which showed another side to what at first glance was a straight up rock band. Definitely a band to keep an eye on in future.”
Benny B - Safe Concerts

"The tune is captivating from the start"
Sapphire Wheeler - the Leeds Scenester

“they held their own with a commanding presence, front-man Rob Doherty demanding hands in the air from the start. His stamina proved nothing short of remarkable as he leapt about the stage flexing and dancing like a Stooges era Iggy Pop. Together they forced their way through an energetic set of punchy indie rock tracks”
Reece Stables - LeedsMusic Scene

“'One Step' boasts a hooky, pop-infused chorus that makes it a thoroughly enjoyable listen”
Jessica Thornsby - Leeds Music Scene

“this could be the next big band to come out of leeds. ”
