The Blinders

Born into Doncaster mining families, the sons of parents who had watched the town “have the life stripped out of it”, the trio – Tom, bassist Charlie McGough and drummer Matt Neale – met as schoolmates.. By 2014 they ‘d become The Blinders, anchored, like all Yorkshire bands, by a mutual love of Arctic Monkeys but far more interested in riding the darker wave of The Wytches, Slaves, Palma Violets and Drenge.
