British India
British India formed in 2006 and exploded onto the Australia pop scene in July 2007 with their debut album ‘Guillotine’. Released independently through Shock records, ‘Guillotine’ received rave reviews across the country. Supported by Triple J the four school friends from Melbourne played sold out gigs across the country and racked up over 120 headline shows in 12 months. The boys became a festival favourite in 2007/2008 securing the national ‘Big Day Out’, ‘Homebake’ ’Pyramid’ ‘Golden Plains’ ‘Great Escape’ & ‘Sounds Of Spring’. Only 12 months since the release of their debut the band are back with album number two ‘Thieves.’ Again produced by Easybeats legend and AC/DC producer Harry Vanda. The first single lifted from the album ‘I Said I’m Sorry’ is currently on high rotation in Australia. The album was picked as ‘Feature Album by Triple J’. ‘Thieves’ debuted at No 5 in the National Aria Chart last week. British India are looking to secure a UK booking distributor/ label. The band will concentrate their efforts in the UK and Europe in 2009.
