Biography
In the 4 years since Fearne formed, the material just keeps getting stronger and stronger. An album, and a 3 track single under their belts, Fearne are currently putting the finishing touches to the eagerly anticipated EP due for release in the spring of 2010. An incredibly busy 2009 gigging, put them in just the right place to focus on the writing of new material. After a support show for Feeder last year they now count lead singer Grant Nicholas as a fan. This has spurred them on to achieve the recognition and level of creative success achieved by their famous admirer.
Alex Bedrijczuk (known as Beds) lead singer, guitarist and principal songwriter with the band has a renegade spirit and a voice that can charm the birds and scare small children, delivering lyrics warped with dry wit and bile, and a truck load of sentimental heart break and tragedy. His role as front man has the quiet assurance of Guy Garvey, but the power of his delivery is what packs the punch. Songs from a soul in limbo, indeed.
The rhythm section of Fearne is key to the sound, the driving Bass lines of Nick Bryson inject energy and give a funk overtone to what could be perceived as indie rock, because it is much more than that, a layered, complex sound, featuring many different instruments and textures, rich in melody and harmony this is music for the discerning masses in this new decade. From the aching melancholy of the single ‘Closer’ to the soaring live smash-the-stage-up favourite of ‘Bang Bang’ the bands original repertoire already has a loyal and growing following.
The pedigree of Fearne’s performances are without peer. Athlete, Feeder, and Nizlopi have all had Fearne open their shows, and always leave the audience wanting more.
