Modestep
Modestep are an electronic rock/dubstep act from London. They formed in 2010 and are quickly becoming known as the British version of Pendulum. Modestep is in fact made up of two brothers Tony and Josh Friend. They amazed everyone during their set at Download festival 2011.They began work on their debut album in January 2011 releasing their first single ‘feel good’. Another track called Bite The Hand was released and the single reached number 5 on the independent releases chat and number 5 on the dance chart. Modestep were becoming noticed more and more, by July 3rd the new single ‘sunlight’ passed 1 million viewers within four days. They made the Radio 1 A-list and were at number 16 in the UK charts.
If this is what they have achieved since their debut album then its pretty sure Modestep have a lot more to live up to. They will be on tour around the UK supporting welsh rockers, Lostprophets in April. New album Evolution theory is due to be released this May.
