Purple Melon

Holowicki

London rockers Purple Melon is an unsigned hard rock group that are the self proclaimed quintessential rockers of British Rock. Their influences range from the Kinks to the Faces. I would have made more of a comparison to the likes of Aerosmith, the Eagles and Kansas. The band has been featured on MTV, AOL, KTLA and Hit Music Central. They have played at the Roxy Theater and other music venues around the world. They are scheduled to begin a USA tour of 140 different venues starting at the beginning of March to promote their new demo called Henry’s Rocket which was produced by Paul Stacey who has worked with the Black Crowes, Oasis, Chris Robinson and the Lemon Trees.

 

They crafted their style in the form of a US/UK style of rock that made a resurgence a few years ago with the likes of Jet and the White Stripes before the indie hype began. They record entirely on analog equipment so it may not sound as polished as digital but is totally acceptable. Watch for their tour dates on their website at http://www.myspace.com/purplemelonspace.
