Has anyone heard of this band...well it is a duo really.
We went to Manchester today and they were playing some songs near the Arndale centre.
Hubby and I listened until the rain made us retreat.
They were very good......so good that I bought their debut CD.
They are likened to Snow Patrol and the Hoosiers.

If you want to check out their music there is a free download on their official site www.passengerofficial.com
They are worth a listen...but not if you like head banging music.

Just had a listen Margret..not Snow Patrol but maybe The Streets.. it's really hard for Manc bands to get there..good luck to them.

They are not a Manchester band, they are from Brighton....and the comparison wasn't one that I would make...it is one that is on their website....sort of 'if you like Snow Partol'......personally I don't like comparisons.
Listening to their music in the city street was good, and after having listened to the CD I am not disappointed.

Cashy, I like all kinds of music from Mozart to Meatloaf...beatles to Beethoven......I just thought i would give you all the cahnce to hear something from this new duo.
