Bristol based garage punk quintet Saloon Dion are filled with righteous anger on their debut single. Pressure deals with the economic mess the UK is in right now and the hectic B-side Hey Hey is about a guy who find himself cornered by the fuzz and contemplates resolving to violence. Shards of The Clash and The Buzzcocks have found their way into their music, honouring the adage that if you gotta knick, steal from the best.
Saloon Dion:
Dave Sturgess: vocals/synth
Tom Simpkins: guitar/vocals
Taryn McDonnell: guitar/vocals
Luke Mullins: bass
Ben Molyneux: drums
