The Beautiful Game Take Over the Airwaves
THE BEAUTIFUL GAME are a five piece alt-rock indie band from London composed of Jason Crowley on vocals, Lawrence Bonavia on Guitar, Steven Foxley on Guitar, Paul Jeffrey on Bass and Katie Padfield on Drums.
THE BEAUTIFUL GAME has a sound that manages to keep that old school Brit indie flame alive and kicking channelling the likes of The Stone Roses, The Libertines, Oasis and The Jam with their very own panache and unique spin on things. The sound is distinctly Britpop, but Britpop with a difference.
The five-piece create rousing melodies with life affirming lyrics and stadium worthy choruses making them a very exciting band and one that you have most definitely been waiting for if you're not already familiar with them.
The most recent single to be lifted from their upcoming album, the dynamic and invigorating ‘Hollywood in Holloway’ was released on the 1st November.
The band are now set to release their 14 track Album ‘Common Royalty’ from which the final single ‘Radio’ is taken.
‘Radio' is a euphoric, stomper of a track from start to finish, stepping up the ante throughout with its powerful drum driven beats and heavy guitar sounds.
The ‘Common Royalty’ album features the following tracks:-
Radio
'Radio keeps you on your toes with powerful, disorientating guitars and pulsating drums, which reflect an introspective vocal trying to find something to cling onto in a life slipping into chaos'
Trenches
'A song about camaraderie and loss with driving guitars and anthemic choruses'
From the Dancefloor
'...Dancefloor captures the thrill and energy of new love, with ska-tinged bass and beats'
Incoherent
'With catchy riffs meeting deep, atmospheric synth and basslines, Incoherent has a hypnotic quality. Repetition will only make you mine...'
Forever in July ( Previously released)
'Intricate verses with D'n'B beats with sweet, soaring choruses'
The Penny Dropped (Previously released)
'A song with a darker edge, coming from the depths of anger and despair'
All Out (Previously released)

Throw Away the Key

Hollywood in Holloway (Previously released)
'Gritty but memorable single capturing life in one of London's most enigmatic areas'
I wrote the lyrics to this song whilst working in a bar on Holloway Road. It’s a road that never sleeps. There’s the rich and the poor, there’s football and war. Living in London isn’t
easy but I couldn’t live without it.
Broken Son (Previously released)
'A mellow and bittersweet song on the loss of parents with a spirited, hopeful chorus'
The Weekend's Over
'2 and a half minutes of pure rock'n'roll mixed with a witty take on today's music scene'
Wait a Minute Darling.../In Clifton Alone ( previously released)
'Pretty, atmospheric interlude which builds into In Clifton Alone - a song which encapsulates the bands mantra of songs about love, life and pints'
Dominoes and Politics
'This big final track is a tale of two halves - the first is upbeat, Madness-inspired ska which crashes into a brooding instrumental ending'
‘Common Royalty’ was written by Jason Crowley, Lawrence Bonavia, Steven Foxley, Paul Jeffrey and Katie Padfield collectively and it was Produced and Mixed by Beau Blaise at Regents Studios in London.
