Foot stomping anthems with sing along choruses, telling stories about life’s characters, losing yourself, finding yourself and running away. With ‘The Only Road I Know’ EP, Brad Dear and his band have crafted an E.P. that shines.

Originally a solo acoustic artist, 27 year old Brad Dear (vocals/guitar) hooked up with Jason Hart (Jake Bugg) to record the track Special Brew, but soon after assembled an accomplished band called The March. Taking the music to the road and playing over 30 festivals to thousands of people (including appearances a Dot to Dot, Tramlines and Splendour), the band then hit the studio with Phil Wilbraham to put down the rest of the songs which feature on the E.P.

The five tracks of The Only Road I Know, Special Brew, Billy Brown, Far Away and I’m Still Here showcase an artist with traditional folk sensibilities, but a style firmly placed in the present. Brad’s unique raw and husky vocals soar, with the warm tones of the fiddle and guitar, blending perfectly with the deep grooves of the bass and punch of the drums.

Whilst still a breakout artist, Brad Dear has already made some astonishing achievements, including tours of the UK and Europe, BBC radio play from Huw Stephens and gigs and festivals alongside the likes of Jess Glynne, Twenty One Pilots, Will Varley and New Model Army.

Brad Dear is currently on tour.
