Over The Wall
—
Over The Wall are Gav Prentice of old steel town Bathgate and Ben Hillman of old seaside town Bridlington, who met in Glasgow in 2002, fell in love (not necessarily with each other, though that too actually) and have enjoyed each other's company ever since. They inflict their relationship on others through the medium of euphoric pop music using keyboards, laptops, guitars, mandolins, trumpets, hurdy gurdys and kazoos. Initially started as a collective encompassing various musicians in Glasgow,
Over The Wall quickly became a live duo that occassionally called on the services of those around them. They place emphasis on the euphoric feeling which unites pop music and renders traditional approaches to arrangements irrelevant. They've tried their hardest on stage on various occasions around the country, most notably at T in the Park in 2007, and have recieved small amounts of coverage on Radio 1 in Scotland and
Xfm. They, and some others, genuinely love their music.
