This is their website - http://www.switchesmusic.co.uk/index.php.
I sent this to Audities on February the 13th;
Not sure how much coverage they're getting yet, but I've been enjoying
the first few singles (and downloads) from the youthful Switches. So
far, they're triggering memories of ELO, Weezer, Silversun and
Supergrass. Not the last word in originality, but they're drowning in
a sea of tunes, and are currently chucking mp3s away for nothing, in
advance of their debut album.
Their myspace site has a few songs -
http://www.myspace.com/weareswitches as well as a link to the band
website, where you can sign up for their Girls' Names singles club
(the free mp3 club, in which they're giving away 12 mp3s of songs
named after girls). Their live show is quite good fun, too.
Matt.
