PRODUCED BY JOHN HOUGH & JOANNE COLLINS

Versives are a two-piece electronica outfit from Cork, Ireland
consisting of Alan Matthews and Kevin J. Power. After carefully crafting
their sound over a series of EPs with producer Ciarán O' Shea
(ex-Cyclefly), Versives' first single 'Kicking Up a Brand New Storm' was
picked up by BBC Radio in the UK and led to a deal with Leeds-based
independent label TAKEA!MF!RE, who are digitally releasing the band's music
in Britain.



In Ireland, Versives have featured on TV3's 'The Apprentice'
('Bacstage Pass' Best Unsigned Bands Compilation CD), the IMRO Showcase
Tour, national radio playlists including extensive play and live sessions
on RTÉ 2FM, as well as touring with their sharp, intense live shows.



'Two Enemies' is the band's current single taken from the
forthcoming album *Prussian Blushes* and has received nationwide airplay in
Ireland and universally positive reviews.



* REVIEWS*



"Yet another revelation to emerge practically fully-formed from a currently
thriving Cork scene, Versives are a three-piece electronic outfit with a
distinctively warm and hugging sound. Two Enemies is a short yet
stupendously convincing teaser of real magic in works."



- AU Magazine



"To our ears, this is Versives' best look yet: mysterious, earthy and
doused in otherworldly charm."


- Hotpress



"Imagine Keane were given an electronic sample desk . . . and some talent,
and you would have Versives"


- Spoonfed.co.uk



Their carefully crafted synth-pop is simply primed for a larger audience,
with singles like* Prussian Blushes* and upcoming singles *Two Enemies *mark
them out as an ongoing concern to be watched.
