(Memo). One of Torbays most prominent original bands, formed in 2006. Memo, with varied influences both musical and non musical, have been making waves around The English Riviera with their raw live performances and eclectic songwriting capabilities.
Picking up the Torbay ArtsBase 'Best Contemporary Band' Award in 2007, MEMO have performed tirelessly around Torbay and are established on the regions Festival circuit, having performed at the Fordstock Festival 2008, Aeon Festival 2007/2008, Fishstock Festival 2008 and mini festival Oddfest, 2008. Memo are also regulars on Palm Fm radio, having conducted interviews and live perfomances and are also profiled on BBC Devon's unsigned bands page. Memo have also seen their original music chart at number 1 on one of the UK's most popular unsigned bands chart.
Memo have a monthly residency at The Blue Walnut Cafe, Chelston Torquay and have an ever growing loyal fan base. Memo have recently been nominated as one of the 3 bands up for the 'Best Group' award at the 2008 Artsbase Awards and are to perform at this years award ceremony being held at Oldway Mansions.
Known for their refusal to compromise original material and stance against a devalued vision of original arts from the local area, Memo are among key figures in the uprising of creative arts from the area. Keen supporters of the Devon Music Collective and Rock School initiative Memo are in it for simple reasons; to create and perform music as they wish, as far and wide as possible.
2009 will see the band re-launch with a new line up and new set, bigger, better and louder than ever before!
