This week....THE WALETONES
The Waletones was born as a concept in the winter of 2009 when band founder, Drew Wale, was confiding in his brother about the disbanding of his six-year-long pop-punk music venture, Sliced Peach. Discussing musical inspirations and song ideas that Wale had for a sixties rock ’n’ roll band, his brother turned to him and said “Bro, The Waletones would be a great name for that kind of band.” And so the seed was planted.
A lifelong inhabitant of the West Country, Wale embarked on a move to the big smoke where he enrolled on to a sound engineering degree with London College of Music at UWL, formed hard rock band Kissimmee and joined chart topping indie band The Holloways on the road for their second album 'No Smoke, No Mirrors'.
The Waletones offer feel-good, sing-a-long tunes that go down as well as a refreshing ice cold Pimms on a hot summer day.
