Sheffield five-piece, SHEAFS formed at the end of 2015. Debut EP ‘Nobody’s Watching’ was described as “Menacing, accomplished and full of confidence” by respected champion of new music; Little Indie Blogs. Steve Lamacq backed the EP and also made SHEAFS featured artist on his Music Recommends show.

It’s been all up hill since then, supporting the likes Pretty Vicious, Idles, Hidden Charms and The Vryll Society, beat over 400 other bands to win the Virgin FreshFest competion, performed live on Edith Bowman’s breakfast show, made the last 120 bands of Glastonbury’s 2017’s emerging talent competition, and huge tune, ‘Nobody’s Watching’ spent 4 weeks on Virgin Radio’s evening playlist.

Despite being new, and completely DIY, their spiky, new wave sound, graft and fearsome live shows are propelling the band forwards at an astounding rate. Come see what the fuss is all about:

7th June – London, The Water Rats
10th June – IOW Festival
14th June – Manchester, Jimmy’s Bar
16th June – Leeds, The Wardrobe
17th June – Sheffield, Plug
