Sunderland Bands and Artists (Spotify Playlist)

[raichcarter]

I have created a playlist on Spotify of all the bands and artists I know with a strong connection to Sunderland (formed in Sunderland or born in Sunderland) but would love to grow this list as I suspect I have just scratched the surface. I am not just looking for well known artists. I would love bands from the area just starting out to get their tracks on here. I know a lot of people starting out put their music on Soundcloud but with free or cheap services like distrokid and amuse.io people should get their songs online and on this list.

I am trying to keep it to one song per artist but please add tracks/bands you think are relevant.

I see you have Bear Trade on there, was going to suggest them. I work with the bass guitarist so get to hear about their gigs quite a bit
