The Pretty Ugly

The Pretty Ugly are a 3/4 piece Pop/Indie group based in Yorkshire. The 80s obsessed Indie rockers, once described as looking like they 'met at a bus stop' aren't your average alternative group. A unique blend of Alt rock and past decade nostalgia breathe a new breath of life into the 20s that comes just as unexpected as it is needed. "With soaring harmonies and catchy melodies these guys have done something really special with that 80s throw back trend that has been going around" (Christan Carlisle - BBC introducing DJ Sheffield) The bands new single 'All The Time' is out now! 'When it comes to instilling attitude into a song, The Pretty Ugly hit the nail on the head with their new single All The Time.' - RGM 4-Piece original 80s Pop/Rock band from Yorkshire that can also perform a variety of covers and requests. Formed when young teenagers and have been making original music and performing covers since that young age. 80s influenced in many aspects of their music style and performance, creating big sounding tunes. James, the front man, is the lead singer and plays rhythm guitar, Sam is the bassist and backing vocalist, creating mouth watering harmonies with James. Joe is the Drummer and Dan plays keys and lead guitar - sometimes both at the same time. Played the 'Amp Awards' battle of the bands back in 2016 and were crowned Yorkshire's best young band after succeeding and advancing through several knockout stages.

The Pretty Ugly love the response they get from playing well known songs to a very high and accurate level, this is one of the main reasons they are now focusing more on their cover game, aiming to play to a wider audience and create memorable shows for all who listen.
