About The Trestles

Named in honour of the author of a Socialist bible and a Bruce Springsteen lyric, The Trestles have something to say... and play hard whilst saying it.

We have completed recording our debut album, which is due for release in 2011 (Listen to 'The Civilised' and 'A Drink Of Water', due to be on the record, on the MySpace Player).

Our new single, 'Maggie's Farm #2' is now available to download from iTunes HERE

Our first single, 'Sing On', is also available via download from iTunes HERE - It's the follow-up to 'Hard Faced Town' - the EP we released via download and CD in 2009. The EP brought us great reviews, and helped us develop a live following.

Songs like 'A Shot Of Wonder' and 'Heavy Heart' received considerable airplay and have become firm favourites at the group's live gigs... And it's on-stage that this band come into their own, with reviews focusing on The Trestles' passionate performances and intense lyrics.

If you like the tunes, you really must see this group live.

Email the band via thetrestles@yahoo.co.uk if you want to book the group or for any more information.

"star gazing, blue collar rock 'n' roll,"... "so different from many Liverpool bands,"... "toe-tapping melodies,"... "exquisite pop with its own mood and message," ... "jangly guitars and raw folk roots, built on a foundation of classic songwriting,"... "there is real joy when The Trestles are in town..."
