Overpass

Emerging as the most exciting homegrown act to come out of the midlands in over a decade, overpass unite singer and guitarist Max, bass player Indie, guitarist Elliot and drummer Jake. The band formed through a series of serendipitous connections and a shared appreciation of arena-sized indie rock, leading them to sell out a string of ever increasing capacity shows in the UK’s second city.

With a growing fanbase despite little music out, overpass continued to make waves in the Birmingham music scene, bolstering word of mouth support. “We didn’t expect to sell out shows so quickly” says Elliot, “but Birmingham’s been amazing to us.” overpass’ dedicated following feels like a refreshing counterpoint to culture’s current obsession with online metrics. “We have big dreams and goals,” Max promises. “It’s great to have loads of views on a video or something. But, like, what does it actually mean? When you see loads of people in front of you singing your songs back – that’s real. It’s tangible. It’s authentic. And that’s what overpass is all about.”
