Brigade

Brigade are a band from Bangor, Northern Ireland consisting of founding members Mel Browne and Jack Stoops. Two lifelong friends making the type of music they both grew up loving. They were later joined by Andrew Armstrong on lead guitar and Zac Carlisle on drums to round out the line up. They look to draw upon the tradition of exciting artists hailing from their hometown such as Snow Patrol, Two Door Cinema Club & Foy Vance to name a few. Inspired by a wide range of influences like Manchester Orchestra, The War On Drugs and Jimmy Eat World. Brigade blends soaring melodies, honest lyrics, massive guitars and a bunch of heart into songs about life, love, loss and everything in between.
