Rotating Leslie

Rotating Leslie hale from suburban Hertfordshire. They met at school and forged their friendship over 3 years DJing on the London Acid Techno scene. As the parties fizzled out they found themselves turning more and more to their guitars and soon the band was born.



They upped sticks from London and moved into an old farmhouse in the Hertfordshire countryside where they'd grown up. They lived, wrote, practiced and recorded and partied on the farm for four years hosting the legendary Woodendstock festival in the back garden. They were picked up by the head of XFM Andrew Philips and taken to play a sold out showcase on the Sunset Strip in Los Angeles.



Disenchanted by the dying embers of a disorientated record industry on their return, they continued with the DIY ethic than has won them fans worldwide. With their live sets creating a buzz from L.A to the Isle Of White Festival, 2010 seemed like time to record an album.



The Walls Have Ears was recorded by the band with long time compadre and sonic wizard Pete Watkins in the rehearsal room the band have inhabited for some years. The album reads like a greatest hits of the bands live shows. It has been signed to Cross Section in Australia and is due out this summer, it will be released everywhere else in 2011.



Send In The Lions has already been played by Nic Harcourt on L.A.'s KCRW and Huw Stephens on Radio One as well as national airplay in Australia, Japan, Europe.



The band have recently recorded a live session for BBC Introducing and played a triumphant set at both the Reading and Leeds Festivals 2010.



They will be touring the UK and Australia in 2011 to promote the album.
