Storey are a vibrant and exciting 5 piece band based in and around London. Their debut album ‘Out of Reach’ was released in 2006 on Readback Records. The album features superb song writing, strong vocals and inspirational musicianship. Tracks from the album have received airplay on national, local and online stations including live interviews/performances on 1089am talkSPORT, Express FM and BBC Radios Cambridgeshire and Berkshire. Internet station ‘Monochrome Museum’ continues to support the band’s efforts.

 

The fan’s favourite at live performances, “Monkey Song”, was also voted top of the ‘Whiteroom’ unsigned chart for two consecutive months early 2007.

 

“…‘Out of Reach’ draws you in and leaves you feeling good….

Genuine and heart warming….” 

Musician Magazine (December 2006)

 

 “a real coup, to get another up-and-coming band with as much potential as ‘Storey’ into the studio, and we’re very excited to be involved with them at this stage in their career.”

Andy Shepherd, 93.7 Express fm

LINE UP

Professional guitarist and songwriter Arron Storey formed “Storey”, recruiting his brother Liam (drums) and close friend Ryan Lemmon (vocals). The band subsequently acquired the talents of professional bassist Simon White and album guest Joe Macklin, and the full line-up took to the road to promote the new album on a short tour of London clubs in December 2006.

 

ALBUM NEWS

 

‘Out of Reach’ was written and recorded over a 2 month period at ‘Rhythm Studios’ in Warwickshire in conjunction with experienced producer/engineer Paul Johnston (Terrorvision, Pitchshifter). The album was released independently in August 2006, and for personal reasons the band decided to donate £1 from each sale to the ‘Leukaemia Research Fund.’ 12 months after release, the album continues to sell well online, in a number of independent record shops and at live events.

The band continues to build a loyal fan base playing at live venues stretching from the South of England to the Midlands. Critical acclaim was received in 2007 for performances at the prestigious Ealing Jazz Festival, London’s ‘Fly Bar’ and “The Bedford’ - renowned showcases for emerging talent. Most recently, the band played to full houses at the legendary ‘Marquee Club’ and Soho’s unique ‘Metro’ – home of the hugely popular ‘Blow Up’ club night.
