New Trowbridge-based band After Aura, who played the Bradford Roots Festival last month, have released their first single, a wistful musing on the ending of a relationship described as ‘being about feeling hopeless and not wanting to bring someone else down’.
The band is made of Chris Hoar, Marcel Rose, Abi Leeder, Louise Schwarz, Pete Willis and Jake Cheeseman, who have all previously played in well-regarded local bands, including Budada, Killing No Murder, Lodestone and Box Standard.
They are now looking to book more dates for the year ahead, as well as hopefully record a full album of original material towards the end of the year.
After Aura features musicians collected from several genre diverse bands, fusing folk, indie, rock together to create their own distinctive style and quality of original music. The band have two live radio sessions booked, on Glastonbury FM on March 5 and Frome FM on March 29.
They are also heading abroad in June, to play a festival in Trowbridge’s twin town Charenton-le-Pont, near Paris.
