Description
In its current incarnation, Chapel Club was born in the summer of 2008 in the shadow of St. Luke's Church, on London's Old Street. It was here, two or three times a week, that the five members of a then unknown band would gather after rehearsing nearby to drink and discuss a name for their group "Like everything else with us," says Michael (guitar, keys), "the name was unplanned and ill-defined in the beginning. We didn't start out with one and we'd go ages without bringing it up. But on the occasions when we did talk about it down in the churchyard, there was a lot of disagreement." Eventually, the answer came from the site of the discussions itself, and the embryonic band became Chapel Club. 'Surfacing' , the track that propelled the band out of the Dalston wilderness into a nations psyche was originally to be the band's debut single but with question marks over copyright issues the track never hit the shops. Following what has been a productive twelve months Chapel Club have continued to wrestle plaudits from critics and the public alike with some truly wonderful live shows, along the way releasing snippets of what's to come in the way of limited edition tracks , recording their debut album with Paul Epworth and recently hitting the road on the NME Radar tour. Chapel Club have been one to keep an eye on throughout 2010 but with an ever growing developing musical armoury 2011 will almost certainly see a band that will be hard to ignore.
