History
Hailing from the small city of Lincoln comes the hard working, melodic punk rock quartet that is The Living Daylights. The band formed from remnants of previous local household names back in August 2007 and what a journey it's been so far... From the heights of constant life on the road and headlining the BBC stage at Leeds and Reading Festivals, to the lows of motor-way breakdowns and being robbed and brutalized by the police, one things for sure- nothing is slowing these guys down.
Just 12 weeks after forming, the band recorded their debut EP "The Living Daylights'', which was later self released in January 2008, The 5 track EP was humbly welcomed by a number of Magazines and the single "Hanging On" recieved airplay on Radio 1 Mike Davies' Lock Up Show. After 8 months of solid touring in UK the band had written and recorded their debut full length album "Ways To Escape" that summer. The Peter Miles produced record saw it's worldwide release in October with Fond Of Life Records and later with No Reason Records (Europe) and Fast Life Records (Japan). Who knew that the next 15 months would see the band headline a number UK and European tours, reaching audiences in 12 different countries, the sharing of stages with some of their most loved bands, appearances at Leeds and Reading Festival and even the parting of bassist and later, vocalist?
