Mirrors
Mirrors were a band originating from Brighton, UK. They started when indie rock band Mumm-Ra broke up. James, the singer from Mumm-Ra, met Ally and they formed Mirrors soon after James “Tate” joined them, a member from Mumm-Ra as well. When Josef joined, the original line-up was complete and the four started to work on material.
Mirrors were compared with and influenced by Kraftwerk, OMD, Depeche Mode, Joy Division and Primal Scream. They are in the end a band who very well reproduce the good old 80’s synth-pop sound!
Their first release, Look At Me, was a nice red 7″ single, self-released through Pure Groove from 2009. Their second single was released through Moshi Moshi and from there they were picked up by Skint Records which led to one album.
Ally left the group in October 2011 and moved to the US to try his luck with Lovelife. Mirrors’ deal with Skint was over, so they were an unsigned band by late 2011. Still they self-released a new digital EP in January 2012 which contained two new tracks and five unreleased demos. Their first single of 2012, called Hourglass, was released on the 18th of June which is their final release to date.
