   About MediaHype

To join our mailing list, email us at theband@mediahype.org

MediaHype are an MRPB. Melodic Rock Pop Band.

We gig in London and Hertfordshire.

"Mediahype are the quirkiest, most fun band I have ever seen, with great songs and really strong musicians" www.bandrepublic.com

"Entertaining to watch as well as great to listen to" The Cavendish Arms

“With laugh-aloud lyrics riding shotgun to racing Beach Boys inspired melodies, the lads deliver a timely poke in the eye to bland conformity…sounds like the beginnings of a British Sea Power-like cult following to me.” Watford Observer

"Melodic catchy new pop with witty lyrics, close harmonies and that rare instant classic quality. This is vivid, new and cool yet with evocative retro tones all preformed by four chaps having the time of their life...you’ll be singing their songs all the way home." The Bull & Gate

Imagine the love child of REM and the Barenaked Ladies, cared for by their Grandfather Brian Wilson. Catchy tunes. Rich Harmonies. Funky rhythms. Serious songs about stupid things.

We put on a show when we perform. Radiohead are great an all that but wouldn't it be nice if they cheered the f**k up?

You will be entertained. You might even dance and sway.
