Biography
Butterflies On Strings are an indie
rock band formed in 2008 in London, consisting of members Allan Harrod (vocals,
guitar), Patrick Baker (guitar), Stephen Cunningham (bass) from Ireland and
Hugh Fox (drums) from Scotland. Although influenced by great British classics
such as The Beatles and Bowie, the synergy that is created through their
diverse tastes means their sound often draws on several musical genres,
including pop, alternative, indie, folk and post-rock. A unique sound they have
often dubbed "post-pop".
In their formative years, Butterflies On Strings (named after a friend's recurring dream) evolved from an electronic indie duo comprised of singer-songwriter Allan Harrod on guitar with Patrick Baker then on bass, armed with nothing more than an iPod of backing tracks with programmed synths and electronic drum arrangements. It was not until Patrick later made the shift to guitar and they found its two missing members in the form of friends Hugh Fox and Stephen Cunningham, that the band began to redefine their sound and make their mark on the London live scene.
