New signing... (for those into music and Boro) - Benefits (the band)

[Flood]

Teesside band Benefits sign to Invada records - nice to see some musical success for a local band, been doing it themselves for a few years now. Nice work from MFC to allow them to film at the ground.

Check out the video:

Took me a few watches to figure out what was going on. Nice idea, cool band too

Just on 6 music as I type.
Lamaq likes them a lot - they just did a great eulogy about Stockton before he played the single - warhorse

Album out in April

Feel like I'm partly responsible for this video. When Boro put that video out a week or so ago with that F***ing awful "Me, I'm from Middlesbrough, Me" song on it I tweeted Boro saying if they had any b***ks they'd have let Benefits make the video. A week or so later they actually have.

This is actually great news though and that new song is immense. Best thing they've done so far

Seen it earlier class well done the Boro for helping out, also announced an Irish tour in May which is brilliant as will be able to see them Belfast be interesting to see how Flag goes down if they play it lol

Sounds a bit like Dan Le Sac Vs Scroobius Pip.

I saw that tweet! Well done agree 100%

Can’t stand that ‘Me I’m from Middlesbrough Me’ song

I love 'em but I can't imagine they're on Steve Gibson's playlist of a morning:

Another play on R6 tonight - Tom Robinson show just after 7

Yeah heard in the car, definitely getting out there now good that they are getting a chance to get their message out to more people

If you close you eyes and listen to it - has Jeff Stelling done the vocal?
