Escapade
Escapade Britpop rock band have a sound that would be classed as Britpop rock. They write all their own material which tends to include both catchy lyrics and guitar riffs that they believe will appeal to a wide audience.

They became a 4 piece band in 2015 when they were joined by Jordan Alleston, bass and Martin Wenham, drums. Influenced by a number of bands but primarily Leicester legends Kasabian and Manchester’s finest Oasis, they are keen to focus on creating their own sound.
