Gentle, melodic, occassionally rocking. It's not gonna blow your ears off, rather slide gently into your brain and swish around tunefully before taking up residence. Peculiarly, this is the kind of music which would sound good in a car on a long road trip. - MusicMart Magazine
'Open Road' sounds like Foo Fighters in a sunday morning mood; the chorus rocksjust enough to let the sweet melody shine through.
'Found', meanwhile, sounds like what Chris Martin might come up with after he'd had an injection of Britpop serum. - MusicMart Magazine
Farleigh's songs are polished and radio-friendly (in fact they've already had airplay on BBC local radio). That, coupled with a great sense of humour, should endear the band to any who listen. The public opinion barometer of MySpace plays is looking pretty healthy too. - MusicMart Magazine

Bio
Hi there! We are a new British band called Farleigh.
We formed the band almost by accident. All of us are session musicians, and we were asked individually to come in to a brand new studio and put it through its paces. Harry mentioned he had a couple of songs he had written, so we decided to record them, and thus Farleigh was born.
With free access to a top studio, we virtually lived in the live room, playing around with ideas, until we found a sound that we all loved. In this fortunate position we focussed our attention on creating a tight live set. Well we believe we've done just that! We've taken influences from bands and musicians such as, Coldplay, Jeff Buckley, Foo Fighters, Incubus, Porcupine Tree, Ben Folds, Red Hot Chili Peppers, as well as bands such as The Beatles, The Beach Boys and Steely Dan.
All of us have performance degrees in Jazz. With such an eclectic mix of influences, we certainly have a unique sound. We believe the world is ready for Farleigh!
