Loading ...Elliot Minor @ O2 Academy Sheffield - Description
Elliot Minor, when they were still known as ‘The Academy’, supported McFly in Newcastle in 2006 to an audience of over 13,000 people and were spotted by a representative of Repossession Records to whom they later signed a record deal.
The band consists of members Alex Davies (Guitar and Vocals), Ed Minton (Guitar and Vocals), Dan Hetherton (Drums and Backing Vocals), Ali Paul (Piano and Keyboard) and Teddy Hetherton (Bass).
Alex and Dan both grew up in York, where they went to the Minster choir school, while Ed, (born in Japan) started his education in England at the age of eight. Alex went on to Uppingham School where he met Ed, and eventually the idea for the band was born.
All material to date are original songs written and recorded by Elliot Minor. They have been recording for around 3 months and are now taking a break to continue playing shows around the UK. The album is planned to be released in late July, while they will be releasing a yet undecided new single in early July.
As gigs became more frequent, they decided to include Ali Paul and Ed Hetherton (Dan’s brother) in the band.
