The Trade are five young musicians hailing from the Scottish town of Forfar, who pride themselves on their stomping anthems that are 'fighting to get out' are releasing a new single 'Fight Club' on Monday 24th May .

The band are made up of Ross Milne on vocals, Bobo Martin on drums, Liam Moir on rhythm guitar, Craig Murray on lead guitar and backing vocals and Drew McLaren on bass and backing vocals. Having been together since 2008 they have established themselves quickly in the Scottish music scene and with extensive gigging they have fine tuned their music.


At the end of 2008 The Trade entered the studio to record the thirteen track demo entitled "Empire." 2009 saw the band back in the studio to record their EP "Breakdown”, featuring indie stomper "The Dealer” - the video of which received airplay on the digital TV service "Virgin On Demand."

The Trade have worked with producer Jeff Allen (Mogwai, Franz Ferdinand, Belle and Sebastian) at CaVa Studios, Glasgow to record their new single "Fight Club". April 2010 sees the band begin work with Jamie Savage, at the prestigious Chem19 recording studio, on the recording of their album “Lie In The Dark”, which will be released on June 14th.

Check out the video to the new single 'Fight Club'  (did your mother not warn you about playing guitar in the bath?).
