Hailing from the Midlands, we chose music and a haggard old van over mundanity and a Lamborghini. To us, life isn’t about pound signs or bank statements, because no amount of money could ever recreate the experience of performing live music. If meeting like-minded people, travelling to far-flung cities with your friends, and doing what you love isn’t the right way to spend your life, then we’re perfectly happy being wrong. We’re writing music that excites and inspires us, and hope that our songs will not only engage and entertain our listeners, but empower and encourage them to find inspiration of their own. www.speakinginshadows.co.uk
