Terracotta Army back in the Studio

Its been a very eventful two months for the Army to say the least. With there lead singer leaving two weeks before the booked tour, it put the band in a difficult position. Undetered the lads picked themselves up and rocked on. As luck would have it it worked out very well as they now have a fanstastic singer onboard in the shape of Olly Hawthorne. Olly has a great track record for live shows so it was a meeting of minds, and as they say the rest is Music history!!!

The band is now full on with rehearsing so we will endeavour to post videos and music sound bites of the lads smashing it out.

For bookings please get in touch via terracottaarmymusic@googlemail.com

Thanks again
