THE BAND
Born out of the ashes of two Shropshire bands and the emergence of an unsung lyricist, The Bartells have opened doors that they could have only dreamt of. Rubbing shoulders with the likes of Cast, The Inspiral Carpets and getting a foothold on the stages of some great music festivals.
We’ve had great opportunity to record at the infamous Rockfield Studios and record with Skin from Cast.
Things can’t get much better than this and In the words of our bass player “ The Best Hobby in the World!”.
Come and see us. If you can’t see us - hear us here!.
