| Biography: |
English rock, alternative rock and indie rock band the Departure from Northampton, England, was formed in 2004. The band comprised David Jones, Sam Harvey, Ben Winton, Simon Alexander, Lee Irons and Andy Hobson. The band formed after starting in Northampton as a collaboration between a former Christian commune member David Jones (vocals and guitar) and his friend Sam Harvey. After recruiting old school associate Ben Winton (bass) and Lee Irons (guitar), the lineup was completed with the addition of Andy Hobson (drums) via a musician's ad website. Jones described the concept of the band to music webzine Drowned in Sound: "We all got quite excited about the whole ethos of what we’re trying to do, which is to take 1980s reference points and transcend them into modern day, edgy, instant kind of sounds". In 2004, they released the hit singles such as "All Mapped Out" and "Dirty Words". And now, you may download these singles by the Departure in mp3 from our site.
