Drenge Discuss Love Of Small Venues For Sound + Vision

Brought To You By Noisey & Burberry
Drenge’s 2013 schedule has consisted of playing city after city, one stuffy venue after the other. Initially coming out of Castleton, just outside of Sheffield, they used to hitch on a bus and ride into the city with their gear on a seat.

They’ve since ended up as festival staples thanks to their stunning self-titled debut. Unglamorous travelling isn’t completely a thing of the past, but they do have a trusty tour van in tow.

Their love of small venues helps, and allows them to force out a brilliant, all intensity live show. They’ve cited Led Zeppelin and the 80s Matchbox B-Line Disaster as influences towards their gung-ho style of performance, in an interview for Burberry & Noisey’s Sound + Vision blog, which also features interviews with London Grammar, Peace and White Lies.
