OperatorSix are a four
piece from in and around Bradford & Keighley in the north of
England. The band consists of Adam Boyce (lead vocals / guitar),
brother Alex Boyce (guitar), Darren Akeroyd (bass) and Ian Atkinson
(drums). What they do is a blend of melodic, feel-good guitar based
rock with an uplifting arsenal of songs that so far have taken the
band far showing no signs of stopping.
The band, well known
locally, managed to break out and create a buzz around themselves by
securing numerous dates with such Indie icons Ocean Colour Scene,
hot new London band 'Dogs', and British legend Paul Weller, playing
to 4000 people at Birmingham Academy for OCS’s homecoming gig, and
to a larger crowd with Weller at Telford International Centre
earlier last year.
OperatorSix continue
to gig in the north of England and have appeared on BBC Radio’s
unsigned session, as well as being Billed on the BBC Raw talent
stage at the Bradford Festival.
As well as performing
live, the band have managed to produce a self funded and produced
studio album entitled ‘Alibi’, featuring 10 tracks of the very
material that has got them this far, it seems to touch everyone who
listens to it, receiving exciting reviews and feedback and inspiring
the progress on the bands second album.
