The White Coats

Young British band blending punk and progressive ska. Upbeat music with a new edge. www.thewhitecoats.co.uk The White Coats first formed in December 2006 for a school concert; James, Rich, Alex and Rob played in front of 100+ school kids hurling abuse... what a show... However this did not affect the enthusiastic quartet as much as it probably should have, as after a month of practicing and writing, the group coughed up a setlist consisting of several lifeless 'pop-punk' songs and two 'Goldfinger' covers.
