Potted history of the band.
In short we all met through friends and word of mouth but nick and Rik founded Adelphia via an online musicians ad site
Mission statement of the band?
We want to put out the music we’ve been wanting to hear and that’s what comes naturally when we write or material.
We want to show that we mean business and have a point to prove.
Dream collaboration.
If it could be any collaboration we’d love to do a song with James from Deaf Havana.
Stage you’d most like to play.
It’s difficult to pick a specific stage, but if we had to pick a stage, it would probably be Wembley Arena. It’s the stage every musician wants to play!
Recently played on your iPods.
We’ve been listening to a lot of The 1975 recently, they’ve such a cool new sound.

All this time life is a line and we’re all queuing up to die
Who would you most like to tour with.
We’d love to tour with Paramore, or Blink-182. They seem like awesome people and we all take influence from them in different ways so to be able to tour with them would be awesome!

Hard hitting melodic rock songs with smooth toned vocals

Unlimited chicken; that’s all we need.
