5 QUESTIONS

THE LIARS CLUB WHO ARE YOU?

We are The Liars Club, a 4-piece punk band/polyamorous relationship from Barrow-inFurness, Cumbria.

WHAT DO YOU DO?

We are professional actors, comedians, legends, music makers and beer-drinkers.

WHY DO YOU DO IT?

We are currently being held in a hostage scenario where we are forced to make punk music on a huge scale. If we don’t make new music our manager dresses up like Elmer Fudd and chases us all with a giant butterfly net until we come up with a new song.

WHAT'S HAPPENING NOW?

Outside of the music, Noah’s Words by The Liars Club

on the tools, Dan’s making submarines, Matt’s driving trains and Frank’s living that sweet, sweet university life. Like most other bands at the moment, we are eager to get gigging again after making new music over the last year of lockdown. Gigging is what we do and can’t wait to be back out there again. We’re starting to crave the energy of playing live again after being idle for far too long. We think this pent-up energy will result in some good first gigs back.

WHAT'S THE HOT TOPIC?

We think the hot topic in music is the post-punk revival that’s been happening over the last few years, with bands like Squid, Black Midi, Shame, Viagra Boys and Dry Cleaning all making the mainstream. To us, this means 17

that there’s a pathway for more guitar-based bands like ourselves to hit the big-time jackpot and play alongside the greats, such as Creed, Limp Bizkit and Coldplay. We’re currently in the process of getting ready to play shows again so we’re putting more time into practising. We have a gig scheduled for the 21st of August at The Castle, Manchester. We also have a few songs in the pipeline so it’s likely that there are a few more releases on the horizon. We recently released a new EP titled ‘Of Self’ last month which is available everywhere now.
