About Me |

“The Amateurs have a thirst for perfection and it beams from every note that they play…” The Amateurs, hailing from the West Midlands, are one of the leading unsigned bands in the UK. Their humble beginnings include being the backing band for Robert Pant and his ‘Tsunami Relief’ project, raising thousands for the charity. The four young men from Birmingham are writing some powerful songs and with an edge that sits them apart from the influx of piano based acts currently dominating the charts, this is both more substantial and undeniably more captivating. The Amateurs new EP recorded with top producers The Animal Farm in London 2008, alongside their awe-inspiring live set, sets them up nicely for some new adventures. Gigs with Guillemots, Jack Savoretti and a standout performance at 2008's Guilfest under their belts, the future looks very bright. The word Amateur comes from French, and can be translated as "lover of", reflecting the amateur's motivation to work as a result of a love or passion for a particular activity. Pursuing amateur activities to the same standards as professionals is sometimes referred to as professional amateurism. center |
