Field Music

Field Music are an English indie rock band from Sunderland, Tyne and Wear, England, that formed in 2004, notable for their numerous side-projects and collaborations with other musicians in the Wearside region. The band's core consists of brothers David and Peter Brewis (who at one time played drums for fellow Sunderland band The Futureheads), with Andrew Moore occasionally featured as keyboardist. Their line-up has at times featured members of both Maxïmo Park and The Futureheads. Early Brewis projects prior to Field Music include The New Tellers and Electronic Eye Machine, several songs of which ended up as early Field Music recordings. Their style has been dubbed 'prog-pop' by the British music press, reflecting both the experimental and traditional elements of their compositional style.
