An alternative artist creating a full band sound from just a guitar, drum and loop pedal. Think Ed Sheeran, but edgier! Failed to Ignite is an independent singer songwriter from Shildon who writes, produces, publishes and performs songs entirely on his own. Drawing in crowds from Newcastle, Sunderland, Durham and Teesside, he has played all across the North East and has another busy year ahead in 2024 including a tour in July.

The unique aspect of being a 'one-man-band' entices audience to watch the magic of his music building up each instrument at a time. Taking sounds from the pop punk and 'emo' music scene, Failed To Ignite's sound and performance is incredibly different from anything you have seen or heard before.
