About Us

Idiot Savant are a history-rock sextet from Middlesbrough.



But seriously, wait.



As opening gambits go it's not the best, but despite this Idiot Savant have gained a loyal following over the last few years, garnering 6music and Xfm play and lots of nice, if slightly strange, press (see below). During this period the band also persuaded Huw Stephens to become the first ever Radio 1 DJ to play a song about Marco Polo's wife; the band's own Emilione.



Formed just after the turn of the millennium by (ex) flatmates Oli Heffernan and Daniel Cochran as an ego project, the band also comprises former Junior Elvis drummer and folk singing monkey hanger Ben Muriel (A.K.A. Folk Daddy A.K.A. F-Diddy), faux nice guy Dean Langstaff, cheekboned poulatarian Robbie Major and Nathan "alright Nath" Stephenson.



Idiot Savant's first record will be out in early 2010. Check back for details.
