The Gentlemen

The Gentlemen have been together for 7 years writing, recording and touring their own material. The music started funk infused indie but has grown into a very immediate and danceable organic pop sound. Currently all in their twenties, The Gentlemen are brothers Josh and Joel Cana, Sean D'Souza Walsh and Nicholas Rognli-Olsen Noble. They first met all together playing on a mutual friend's album in their home town of Sheffield . They’ve released 2 full studio
albums and a 6 track acoustic EP. They’re latest single I’m Not Leaving got to number 9 in the Independent charts in the summer of 09. They’ve toured extensively in Europe ad the UK and this summer are playing in Germany, Holland and Norway.
Notably, much of the UK tours have been their own brand of house gigs called ‘The Tour of Homes .’ This is organised
directly with their fans , who act as grassroot promoters and get to host their favourite band in their house. Their
online presence consists largely of their
monthly video updates and Christmas songs .
2011 saw the rise of The Gentlemen Mashup
project , each month combining 2 or more
famous songs by other artists to form a
hybrid or mashup. In 2012 , they have embarked
on ‘The Gentlemen Go’ Project performing
their own songs in different locations
and collaborating with other local artists.

The Gentlemen have been hard at work promoting
themselves as independent artist without representation or backing for the last 3 years . After the demise of their record label, due to their parent companies debts , through
their determination and their grassroot support , The Gentlemen have managed to increase their profile . To date, they have over 3000 addresses on their mailing list , several thousand fans on facebook , combined record sales in
excess of 10000 units and a Youtube channel with over 114000 views.
