The Sea

True brothers in arms, Peter and Alex were both junior national surfing champions, representing Great Britain at major International events, living the surfing dream on the Cornish coast … and then they discovered rock n roll … which seemed to fit in neatly with the ‘surf, write songs, smoke spliff and write more songs’ lifestyle . They then formed a two piece and started honing their craft, which gradually grew in its dominance of their collective days. Swapping boards for Guitars and drums, Alex and Peter started gigging in earnest – traveling the length and breadth of Europe in the mandatory battered van, collecting fans wherever they went… creating optimum noise with minimum band members and fuss. A licensing deal swiftly followed, with major support from Germany, Italy and Benelux, The Sea broke all the rules and did it their way. Then potential tragedy struck - Alex, in a very untimely fashion broke his neck in a surfing accident, resulting in surgery and physio for an extended period of well over a year and at one time it looked as if he would never play again! However, in typical Sea fashion, Alex didn't take no for an answer and is now back playing better than ever... This was swiftly followed by several other life threatening situations for the 2 brothers; 100mph car crashes, near drownings, many broken bones...It's been a mental few years, more than most people could cope with in a life time... The Sea are possibly the most dangerous band to be around in the world! But now they're back and with a new release in hand and the continued support of the label, the boys are on form, have a new management company behind them and are ready to rattle cages and get the show on the road. Touring beckons, with new songs and replenished fire in their souls, The Sea are certainly back. The Sea have toured with The Kills, Muse, The Enemy and James Morrison. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Influences such as MC5, The White Stripes, The Kills and a smattering of Stooges jostle for attention as the boys put pedal to metal. Punk and blues crash together with a fresh punk vibe. It’s raw, fast and dirty. Firmly turning their backs on the industry The Sea don’t give a damn about ‘playing the game’, photo shoots, stylists and marketing gurus – there are no click tracks, horns and strings here! Just 1 guitar, 1 drum kit and screaming vocals – all turned up LOUD. Their live shows are a white hot sweaty affair that has earned them an army of fans all over Europe and a reputation that’s second to none.
