Sleepercell have been in existence for approximately a year and a half with a number of different lineups playing gigs mostly in the Preston and Manchester area and working hard on perfecting their sound.
Sleepercell draw their influences from almost any band willing to try anything a little different, notably bands such as Tool, A perfect circle, Muse and smashing pumpkins as well as instrumentalists such as Joe Satriani and any artist trying to create emotion and ambience within their sounds. Sleeprcell are a band who manage to retain a large amount of heart felt emotion in their music whilst making it technically accomplished and exciting to listen to.Band/artist history

We play mainly in Preston sometimes Lancaster and Blackpool too and then when we can we just play wherever. Gigging to us is the best part of being in a band its so much fun to let rip and also to see other music fans enjoying something weve worked so hard on. Also its kinda cool to be up on stage with everyone watching. its just a buzz. Special had to be the Mill tho. We managed to make our entire stage set fall down lol. Mainly cos we rocked so hard m/ ahem and partly because we put it up badly with sticky tape lol
