One Cure For Man

Information

One Cure For Man are:

Jay Tennant - Lead Vocals. James Parkinson - Guitars/Keyboards. James Brookes Buckley - Drums & Percussion. Greg Masora - Bass Guitar.

One Cure For Man began life in 2009, forming from the still-burning embers of well-respected Leicester band Subjects Of The City. Powerhouse duo guitarist James Parkinson and drummer James Brookes Buckley developed their sound over a number of years, playing a host of well-received gigs around Leicester and beyond, before hooking up with talented bassist Greg Masora.

Taking inspiration from the great alternative bands that really meant something, from Led Zeppelin through to The Smiths and Manic Street Preachers, as well as from the life-affirming works of Orwell, Grosz and Plath, One Cure For Man’s powerful new songs started to take flight.

After honing their craft on the Leicester music scene for a couple of years, the summer of 2011 found the band seeking a new singer and a fresh lease of life. Like all the best twists of fate, when Jay Tennant stepped into the rehearsal room the band chemistry was complete and progress was swift.

In September, the band launched a 5-track EP showcasing the burgeoning talents of the new line-up and the strength-in-depth qualities of the material. From the call-to-arms rallying cry of ‘A Civil Language’ through to the epic soul-searching of ‘Not A Word To Anyone’, One Cure For Man provide an all-too-rare fusion of ambitious, dynamic music, thought-provoking lyrics and swirling, addictive melodies. In these dark days of disposable music and gone-in-6-months fads, here is a classic-yet-contemporary rock band that offers personality, integrity and longevity.

These are exciting times for One Cure for Man. The band will round off 2011 with a further recording session and then who knows…? Definitely a name to look out for in 2012…
