Their sound has been described as “a taut, echo-riddled rock hybrid that sounds like what would happen if Kasabian ditched the ‘lad fans’ and let rip on the pedal board”.

The Raiders – The Raiders officially evolved into its current and final form on the 20th of March 2015 and since that historic day, Telford’s Favourite Son’s have been laying the foundation to their imminent world domination, through the power of face-melting solos from Jack ‘Legs’ Richards and Luke ‘El Chivo’ Odenwalder; coupled with the surgical timing and rhythm from the cataclysmic drumming of none other than Josh ‘The Paste’ Tooth and leg-shaking basslines from Alex ‘Hogson’ Hodson. All this and more makes up the throne that Alix ‘The Bear King’ Jones rests his voice, the voice dropped from the heavens by a clumsy cherub, the voice to unite lost brothers, the voice to save kittens from burning buildings, the voice to save us all.
