About us


Hoover Dams arrived on the live circuit in Mid 2005 instantly making their mark with their explosive, energetic shows, buzzy pop songs and Hoover Kung Fu fighting and burning antics


Regular gigging up and down the country has gained Hoover Dams a reputation for blistering, unpredicatable live performances managing to blend pop songs, distorted guitars, a diy mentality and entertaining live performance to create catchy scuzzy pop tunes.

In mid 2007 Hoover Dams appeared on Channel 4's Harvey Goldsmith Presents series and won the prestigious title of Harvey Goldsmiths (Legendary Live Aid promoter) Entertainers of the Year

2008 has already seen the release of their third ep 'Fight Night' and a whole list of new dates out on the road of the UK

Hoover Dams have supported in the last couple of years the likes of - Forward Russia, The Sugars, Napoleon IIIrd, The Lost Boys, Whiskycats, Luke Leighfield, Stateless. Middleman. Buen Chico...

Having just released their 3rd EP with an album, promised for the new year, catch these guys (and girl) whilst you still can

What they're saying -

Cool Noise Website - 'Intense and claustrophobic music from Bradford. Extra proof, as if anyone needed it, of the Leeds/Bradford axis of musical accomplishment. More edge than a very edgy thing.'

Vibrations Magazine - 'The Hoover Dams create refreshing indie Rock'

Frantic Corduroy Website - 'What is this low-fi loud guitar love-in and where has it come from? Bradford, apparently. it's catchy, it's interesting, it's a little dark and it sounds like the track was recorded on an old Memorex cassette found under the passenger seat of someone's car - but the lo-fi feel goes well - it's a bit dirty and you want it to be that way. Who wants to feel all shiny after some gritty loud guitars? More like you need a shower and a good scrub. But hell, you're alive' 9/10

Mono Magazine - 'Hoover Dams swirling unison riffs engulf the whole club - its fing loud and its fing good ... there's depth, intrigue and more importantly DANGER here ... Go and see the Hoover Dams soon.'
