Bio
Reveiew from UCD Magazine
"Their Myspace page describes the band as ‘four lads from Dublin’. They are indeed four lads but their sound is anything but Dublin. Liverpool runs through their veins and is their lifeblood. Early rockabilly is eaten for breakfast seasoned with Johnny cash, lunch mainly served with a helping of acoustic Stones (Rolling) and a side order of The Coral. The main course is undoubtedly the Beatles, which the Strutts return to for seconds. According to their five a day the Strutts take a small helping of the pixies and the La’s for desert. A loose immediately raw sound defines The Strutts however this deceives the obvious craft, care, attention and direction behind the band. Tight, solid rhythms provide the backing for rich and light guitar work all of which compliment backing and lead vocals. The majority of the tracks on their newly released EP, available on iTunes, notably ‘Down’ and ‘People Talk’ have the hallmarks of indie hits. There is lots of potential to grow for a band that has produced this calibre of work so early in their career. Let’s hope that they don’t disappear into the musical ether or up their own arses.
