Enormous are an Indie Powerpop band from Derby, United Kingdom.
They are pure horn-rimmed pop with brass reinforced hook-lines that don’t let go.
Their live set has developed into a sweaty, mind blowing sexual experience. Add together the prolific songwriting talent of Davy Lawrence (and his at times, off-the-wall delivery), their drive, colourful energy, intelligent wit, strident pop-star attitude and quiet confidence; and you have a band that shows all the signs of conquering the world with some of the finest songs ever. The abundance of catchy hooks and the universal appeal of their singalong choruses (where seriousness is at times allied with a quirky irony) produce a massive, across the board potential that means world domination!
Enormous cite their influences as Ray Davies, Difford & Tilbrook, Bacharach, The Beatles, Nick Lowe and Elvis Costello. Their songs are classic pop gems reminiscent of Buzzcocks, The Kinks, Squeeze, Madness, The Smiths, The Wonderstuff, Blur, The Cure, The Divine Comedy, Teardrop Explodes, and The Clash.
Enormous was formed out of the band Slaughterhouse 5 from Mansfield, England, by Davy Lawrence (vocals, guitar), Graham Boffey (drums, vocals), David Graham (vocals, bass) and Steve O'Toole (guitar, vocals), later joined in 1996 by Paul Varga (Tenor Saxophone) and Ashley Morgan (Trumpet). New Bassist Mike Ridley-Dash joined in December 2009. And to complete the band line-up, Travis Peters (keyboards) joined the band in 2010.
