Yet another group with four talented musicians, each bringing their uniqueness to every song: The Stiff Dylans.  After being introduced and cast to play a band called The Stiff Dylans in the film adaptation of Louise Rennison’s novel: Angus, Thongs, and Full-Frontal Snogging, the four realized the chemistry of each sound they brought, and formed The Stiff Dylans- this time, off-screen.  The movie was released in the UK in 2008, and premiered in the US earlier in January 2010.

James Flannigan provides the band’s vocals and guitar, while Charlie Wride rocks the lead guitar, Matt Harris the bass, and Tom Slaytor the drums.  The sounds that each of these individuals brings meshes together in such a perfect manner that their first single sounds like they’ve been a band for much longer than they actually have.

Though they haven’t become too popular, they are definitely gaining a wide fan base- especially after being released in the US; their song has become more well-known in this country.  Their single Ultraviolet was released in July 2008, and is featured in the movie they appeared in.  Definitely a band to keep an eye on, because they have an incredible future awaiting them: as individuals and together as a band.  The only way to go from here is up.
