The Bristol based 5-piece was formed when singer Steve Bird answered an ad placed by Sam James. James’ was looking to form a band who could do ‘something fresh and new’ and Bird was looking for something to inspire him after a previous band split up. It was a perfect union. Besides Sam James and Steve Bird there’s Wayne Jones on bass, Dave Betts on keys and Ed Gallimore on drums
The Ramona Flowers play rock with electronica influences. Since their debut Dismantle And Rebuild in 2014 has experienced many highlights. After touring extensively throughout 2016 with the likes of White Lies, The Heavy and The Stereophonics, the band jumped into the studio to lay down 4 brand new songs to their repertoire.
Ahead of the EP, the single If You Remember was released today. Steve Bird about If You Remember: “It’s about two lifelong friends and one of them has hit complete rock bottom. The one friend reminds the other of better times to try to help pick him back up emotionally.” The main melodic hook of the song was written in the garage; “We were playing around with operatic voices on the computer. Skipping past Pavarotti, we found a less dramatic female lead and the song progressed from there.”
