They are called 'The Carpet Lions' and are a local band from Biddulph. The three members James Ryan (Vocals), Rob Hughes (Piano and Backing Vocals) and James Shufflebotham (Guitar) have been close friends for many years, when Rob and James S decided to form their own band as they have a similar taste in music.
After one unsuccessful band was formed and gone, they decided to try again, this time with a less serious theme. After searching for a singer, they decided to audition their close friend James Ryan. With his ability to rap and sing and hold an audience's attention, he was just what they were looking for. Since then they have been making songs, making video's for them and uploading them to Facebook and Youtube, 'The Carpet Lions' have become a well known local band. With their cheeky humour and charm they have managed to get their own gig at 'The Sugarmill' in Hanley which was a huge success. 'The Carpet Lions' also entered the 'Signal Star' competition hosted by the local radio station Signal 1, and got through to the final 12 but then sadly missed out. They're growing stronger and stronger and as they are liked by the local public, they are the ideal band to use in my video.
