Band/artist history

Alecto spent the first few months of their existence gigging in and around the Manchester area, building up a local fanbase. In this time they released their first CD - Era of the Crowd EP which was well received by local promoters and audiences alike and attracted interest from local distribution company - Emotion Records as well as being stocked in HMV Manchester as part of a showcase promoting the city’s best new acts. Following this they played a major record label showcase in Birmingham's Hard Rock Café and received encouraging praise from Devra Wright - a representative of Columbia records: "Tight band... Good vocals. I really liked Mentalist Philosophy - great vibe / energy. I thought there was something unique about Alecto"

Have you performed in front of an audience?

Yeah, of course. Any band needs as much gigging experience as they can get and its still the best way to get out there and hopefully turn heads
