Bancroft
Start with big wailing vocals iced over thick, velvety, distorted guitars; add a driving rhythm section and you have a great start for a sweet rock band. Take these elements, combined with catchy melodies and clever hook-driven songwriting, and now you have a band to write home to your friends about. Make that band rock your socks off with a high energy, entertaining live show, and you have Bancroft.
Bancroft’s sound could be described as if Dave Grohl of The Foo Fighters teamed up with Rivers Cuomo of Weezer. They fuse genres of rock, pop, and even funk to create a delightful medley of distorted guitars, infectious hooks, and fun but captivating lyrics. Currently, the band has released its second full-length album, The Melophobic Solution, which is available at record stores, online, and at live shows. Song from this disc can also be heard on over 190 radio stations across the country.
