Switches is tagged as: Switches were an indie rock band which formed in Guildford, England in 2005. They consist of Matt Bishop (vocals, guitar), Ollie Thomas (guitar), Thom Kirkpatrick (bass) and Steve Godfrey (drums). The band’s debut album “Heart Tuned to D.E.A.D.” was released on April 23, 2007 in the UK and on March 18, 2008 in the US (under the title “Lay Down the Law”). Singer/Guitarist Matt Bishop grew up on the Essex coast where the edgy glitz of Southend seafront did nothing more than inspire Madison Square Garden fantasies. After hearing T-Rex’s ‘Electric Warrior’ when he was 4 years old he wrote his first song called “It’s My Shadow So Leave It Alone”. While other kids were at school learning the three Rs he was studying the three Bs, Bowie, Bolan and Blur, skipping lessons to write songs about girls, more than 200 (songs, not girls) by the time he was 16. Realizing that the musical monkey wasn’t getting off his back, he learned to play every instrument he could find, then he asked everyone he met what their favorite album was and played it over and over again, searching for its secret…that moment on every album when it all comes together, by accident or design, the essence of music, the holy grail of the song...
