Rolo Tomassi

Rolo Tomassi are one of the hottest bands in the UK at the moment, playing synth driven mathcore.

The band formed in 2005 and pursued a cassette tape release via danger!laser!phaser!razor! limited to 200 copies. After a split EP with Mirror! Mirror! the band signed to Holy Roar records, building up a reputation for a fearsome, energetic live show.

In 2008, Rolo Tomassi played a well received show at Download Festival, going onto sign with Hassle Records and releasing their debut album, entitled 'Hysterics', on 22nd September 2008.

This year has seen the band tour with The Bronx and Fucked Up as part of Rock Sound's Shred Yr Face 2 tour, followed by hotly anticipated shows at SXSW festival in Austin, Texas.

Edward Dutton - drums
