  • The Violet May are an English 6-piece rock act from Sheffield, England. Formed in early 2009, The Violet May quickly earned a reputation for their wild live shows and were named by Alan McGee in The Guardian as one of his "Top 15 Tips for 2010". In 2010, The Violet May released their debut single "Bright Or Better" as a limited edition 7" vinyl single on Oh! Inverted World Records, along with an accompanying video shot by Douglas Hart of Jesus and Mary Chain in Peter Stringfellow's London nightclub. Following the release of "Bright Or Better", the band appeared on Steve Lamacq’s BBC 6Music show as his "New Favourite Band". The Violet May also headlined London's Koko (venue) for Club NME, undertook a headline residency at Alan McGee’s Death Disco clubnight in London, played at Leeds Festival and Secret Garden Party, and then headed to Italy for a sold out tour through Rome, Venice and Florence. In early 2011, The Violet May toured in Germany with The Chapman Family before releasing their debut EP entitled "TV", along with a single of the same name. The EP was recorded in Sheffield's 2Fly Studios with producer Alan Smyth, who had previously worked with other notable bands from the city including Pulp, Arctic Monkeys, Reverend & The Makers, Richard Hawley and The Long Blondes. Later in the same year, The Violet May supported Death In Vegas and performed their second headline show at London's Koko venue before embarking on their own UK headline tour. The band also played two shows at Iceland Airwaves Festival in Reykjavik. (en)
