The Fore are one of the most exciting and dynamic unsigned bands in Britain. The Fore's brand of raw rock and roll sounds like no other band around, blending timeless unforgettable melodies with a pulsating backbeat. It's instinctive, distinctive music; it's dirty Hamburg beat; it just feels right!!
The Fore will transport you straight back to the early 1960's with their raw, Merseybeat rhythms - evocative of the Fab Four in their early years.
The Fore got their start as The Beatniks in 2000, after changing their name to The Fore in 2001 they took their energetic, harmonious sounds wherever they could find an audience. This brought them to the attention of the manager of The Cavern Club in Liverpool, who offered them a residency. They played clubs, festivals — even high street venues — to broaden their fan base as they gained experience. In 2007, they recorded their first CD, entitled “Black & White” — an independent venture that has sold thousands of copies around the world by word-of-mouth only! They performed at the Southeast England Fireworks Display in front of 35,000 in November, 2007 and have supported the famous Bootleg Beatles in Shrewsbury, Shropshire, England and G2 — a Genesis tribute band. In 2008, they won the BBC Upstaged competition and performed live on international television. In December, 2008, they released their second album 'Run and Hide' to critical aclaim, The Fore are also beginning to make inroads into America and have been played on numerous radio stations. In December 2008 The Fore reached number one on the Unsigned Chart Show (iTunes) with the track 'You'll be Mine' taken from the album 'Black and White'.
The Fore are making supersonic waves across the country, making them THE Band to see - catch them if you can!
