Talented young
upstarts Malik & Pettite, widely
tipped as one of Coventry's most exciting up and coming bands, have announced they will be releasing their debut
4-track EP on 7th October 2013.
Ahead of the release, the
band have unveiled their first promotional video to opening track ‘No More
Love’ which is available to stream on YouTube:
Steve
Malik and Loz
Pettite (previously known as The Tones) first met in a club in
Coventry when they were just 16 and 17, and soon began writing and performing
songs together. Since then, the pair have developed song-writing
maturity, drawing on a huge range of musical influences, including indie from
the last decade, 90s Brit-pop, and 1950’s rock ‘n’ roll to create their own
unique and signature sound. Exuding a youthful confidence, Malik &
Pettite possess a keen ear for a winning pop melody, which allows them to
craft a sound that is all at once both classic and fresh.
The pair have gained
valuable live performance experience from club and concert performances,
including performances at Coventry’s Godiva Festival and, thrillingly,
opening for The Specials at Coventry’s Ricoh Stadium, to a
sell-out crowd of around 10,000.
The Specials bassist Horace
Panter commented: “It was a tall order
to appear in front of 10,000 rabid Specials fans in their home city of Coventry
and play a set of un-released songs but the band rose to the challenge. That
they can cut it is not in doubt. Talent, fine songwriting and a flair for
showmanship - plus youth and good looks. Do they need anything
else?”
Malik &
Pettite’s debut EP will be released
by United Producers Records UP Label as a download only
on 7th October and will feature 4 original songs recorded
at Rolo Studios, Coventry and produced by the Grammy
Award-winning Roger Lomas.
