Locksley

Locksley is a band in the truest sense, fronted by three singin', guitar-slingin' songwriters kicking out unabashed pop gems that beat with a rock'n roll heart. Produced by longtime collaborator Guy Benny, and released on the band's own Feature Records, Locksley captures the NYC-based combo's knack for timeless songcraft, melding three-part harmonies, glorious melodies, and unshakeable hooks. Since coming together in Madison, Wisconsin, Locksley soon lit out for New York City where they earned instant attention for their snappy songs and ever-exuberant stage presence. Marked by Locksley's almost encyclopedia passion for music, their self-titled debut album's manic pop thrills represent the definitive account of their electrifying first chapter. Songs such as "The Whip" or "Oh! Wisconsin" deftly thread the needle between pure pop perfection and punk's raw power, with crunchy riffs, call-and-response choruses, and snug harmonies. Crackling with energy and ingenuity, Locksley reveals a marvelously gifted band that have only just begun rocking to the peak of their powers.
