We are Arbitors. We are a modern sounding alternative band with members all hailing from Northamptonshire. Only formed in November 2007, we have already recorded some great sounding tunes. Tom T, Paul and Martyn all met through a mutual love of dance music in the early 90s - this influence is still heard in the music they make today. Tom D hadn't met the group until late 2006 after a Reading Festival pilgrimage in 2007. Friendship and trust were earned and a decision to ask him to join us in forming a new band seemed obvious. Before forming a band, all but Tom D have worked as DJs with various degrees of success - Martyn is producing all types of dance music to a high standard and regularly remixes our own tracks (we like to have both sides to our music a la Soulwax). Our basic decree is to write 4/5 minute pop songs, we want to appeal to as many people as possible (sell out, basically!).

Our influences are wide and varied, ranging from The Beach Boys to QOTSA to Klaxons - just imagine if they all made an album together.

With our first release and a few gigs under our belt it's an exciting time for us. "All The Things You've Done" is released courtesy of Shifty Disco on the 11th of July - set for a download release as part of their weekly singles club. We hope to keep the momentum going with gigs, recording and writing of new material in a view to getting that elusive record deal.

See you on the flip side
