Gimme Something is the debut single from Cambridgeshire band Max Headroom.
A song about anyone who’s trying to make their way in the world. We all make bad decisions, we all get jealous we all need someone to “Gimme Something” to get us through. With a barnstorming riff, a guitar sound that slaps you in the face, a giant hook of a chorus and a performance that oozes confidence Max Headroom are ready to bring their brand of Rock n Roll to the masses.
Gimme Something takes influence from bands like The Hives, White Stripes, Arctic Monkeys and many more. The Indie influences don’t stop there either Gimme Something was produced by the one and only Billy Lunn of the The Subways!
After years of treading the boards in Cambridgeshire pubs as a cover band Max Headroom could play Mr Brightside, I Predict A Riot and many other indie classics in their sleep, this remains to be the way they spend most Saturday nights but Max Headroom are now finally curing their creative itch.
Singer Drew Girling and guitarist Mark Ellis both have a tonne of songwriting experience to bring to the band. Drew has previously won a songwriting award for his song The Last Meeting in a local competition and has been part of many original projects prior to Max Headroom while Mark has in his own words has “flown close to the sun a few times”, most recently as the driving force behind Elma a project that wound up supporting Roy Wood on tour and gained Mark a small publishing deal as a songwriter at BMG Music.
Enter Edd Mitchell on drums the back bone of the band on drums and in life too, an absolutely stand up dude that Drew and Mark have leaned on many times through the years. Though relatively new to writing originals he certainly knows how to lay down a groove and has a keen ear for the perfect drum part!
Together can these best bros write a great tune? You bet they can! It’s time to buckle up for Max Headroom’s exciting adventure!
