The Ordinary Boys may still be in their infancy but have already been tipped by NME, X Ray, Radio 1 and MTV2 as one of the bands most likely to in 2004. Having formed in March 2002, the four piece are fashioning a uniquely English sense of guitar pop with bite from influences ranging from the most loved Will Self to Brighton Rock, PG Wodehouse to the golden era of British guitar music. Having played the Radio One Live in Brighton event with Hot Hot Heat and Franz Ferdinand at the request of Zane Lowe after he heard an early demo of “Maybe Someday”, the band are quickly forming a fervent fan base. The Times noted at an early show that “their best tunes really do evoke Paul Weller, when he was still alive, and the Smiths’ minor key fantasies”.

The Ordinary Boys are currently finishing their debut LP with producer Stephen Street for a summer release.
