The Long Blondes

Bio

The Long Blondes were a five-piece English indie rock band formed in Sheffield, United Kingdom circa 2003. They released their debut album, Someone to Drive You Home, on Rough Trade Records in November, 2006 after several critically-acclaimed singles. After an extended European tour, they entered the studio with DJ/producer Erol Alkan in late 2007 to record their second album, "Couples", which was released in the UK in April, 2008. On the 20th October 2008, due to the unexpected illness of their primary songwriter and lead guitarist, Dorian Cox, the band announced their amicable split via a message on their website, the same day their singles compilation, "Singles" was released.
