Leeds Music Scene Review of The Creeks @ 360 Club

The Creeks @ 360 Club September 2011

“Next up, and with much crowd buzz, were The Creeks. Two songs in and it’s clear that the buzz is not for nothing. The band perform as one and there’s a wealth of energy pulsating from frontman Ste Pye’s cocksure vocals. The sound has its parallels in balls-out rock outfits like Velvet Revolver, not straying too far from the conventions, but it’s played with such energy that no-one’s complaining. A solid backline with some lively and loose drumming is equalled by some flashy classic rock guitar-work and gritty vocal displays. Fresh from Leeds Fest, the confidence and banter belie a band ready for bigger things.”
