We Are Standard

We Are Standard, the Spanish indie quartet are not quite as standard as their band name would lead you to believe. Their indie’tronic sound has been delighting the Spanish masses and their first album 3000v-40000w was released in the USA in July 2007 under the artist name We Are Standard. The debut gained them international attention and they were invited to play at some of the largest European festivals including Pukkelpop, Benicassim and Eurosonic.

Since then, they have released another album entitled 'Day' full of more of their signature indie styling complete with frantic guitar and lyricism detailing past romances and more. In 2014 they also re-recorded some of The Clash's biggest hits, a lofty mission for any band but as The Clash are one of Standard's biggest influences, it is an endearing feat. They also manage to put their own spin on a number of classics, which they have then adapted to include into their live show which delights fans who get to singalong and head band to these retro tunes. The largest applause of the evening are saved though for the band's original material to 'Jesus In Her Eyes' and 'Can I Count On You'.

An energetic band who maintain a high degree of fun throughout the show, joking as a band onstage and with their crowd below. They work well as a four piece and the friendship shines through their performance, shortly embarking on a tour across Spain, tickets are available now.
