Title: Tone's friends played on Channel 4 TV
Post by: tone on February 25, 2012, 09:22:17 AM

Hi folks :)

I wanted to share with you a little success my good friends Elijah & Ava Wolf are having right now, with a few of their songs being chosen as music to appear on Channel 4's Hollyoaks programme.

They're fantastic songwriters I'm sure you'll agree. Take a listen here http://elijahandavawolf.bandcamp.com/album/as-heard-on-hollyoaks?from=embed

And please visit (and like) the facebook page for their new band The Gravity Drive (some songs featuring piano by yours truly ;) ) http://www.facebook.com/thegravitydrivemusic

Just had a quick listen to first one... Sounds great. Will have a proper listen later on.

I'm off out while it's both mine and my partners birthday.

Looks good :)

th name of the band?

The name of the band is The Gravity Drive, but those songs were recorded under the name Elijah & Ava Wolf. The Gravity Drive album is near completion, and I can tell you now that every song on that album is fantastic. :)
