Band Bio
How did the name come about?
We spent many drunken evenings throwing band names into the hat. Can’t actually repeat half of the suggestions!! Sing Sing Hotel came about after we’d seen it written on the back of a random t-shirt in the pub and decided that was the one for us.
When did the band form?
Prince Harry, Chris & Nick have all been jamming as Sing Sing Hotel since early 2008, recruiting Robin on drums in May.
Where’s the band based?
We’re all from The Peoples Republic of Swindon.
How did you come together?
All of us have known each other and been involved in the local music scene for the past 10-15 years (makes us feel old now!!) After several enjoyable but failed attempts at rock stardom and previous projects had run their course – Chris, Prince Harry & Nick decided to get together and jam with the intention of getting a few ideas together and seeing if we could do anything with them. Robin then came along and completed the line up.
Where would you like the band to go?
We’ve started this whole project with a really laid back attitude, just looking at writing a few songs for ourselves and if anyone else likes them then great. We think that’s starting to come through in a lot of the newer songs. We’re under no illusions that we’re far too old to be doing anything serious with music but if we can enjoy ourselves and entertain a few people with all of this then we’ll be happy.
Do you have plans for additional studio time?
We’ve come a long way in the couple of months since our first studio session. We’ve a permanent drummer now and a decent set of songs. It was important for us to get into the studio back in March and get some ideas down to start the ball rolling with gigs etc.. Now we have that, we’ll be back in towards the end of the year. At the moment our priorities are our live dates this summer.
