The Wild Beasts are a new age pop band originally from Kendal but now based in Leeds
History
The band began in Kendal in January 2004 when Chris Talbot joined Hayden Thorpe and Ben Little who had been writing original pop songs since 2002. They quickly moved into their first practice stuido at Mintsfeet Industrial Estate. With the aid of Gareth Bullock (a stand in bassist), in June 2004 the band began recording their first demo EP titled 'Wild Beasts'.
In September 2005 the band relocated to Leeds and Tom Flemming joined as full time bassist. They soon gained a following within the city and recorded their second demo EP titled 'Espirit De Corps'. The band quickly followed up with a third demo EP titled 'All Men'.
The band signed for Bad Sneakers Records in August 2006 and are due to release their first single 'Brave Bulging Buoyant Clairvoyants' on 20th November 2006.
