The Preventers are Cumbernauld based band with a unique sound. Its hard to pigeon-hole them to any one particular genre, but its definitely somewhere between blues and soul - with a bit of rock in there somewhere as well. Its clear that their influences lie with the likes of Elvis Presley and Paolo Nutini and regardless of how you want to label them, these guys have something in their music. They gig regularly in Edinburgh and Glasgow and have played venues such as The Classic Grand and headlined the Cabaret Volitaire.
The band recently released a new single entitled 'One Last Night', and its one that I would definitely recommend. The track 'One Last Night' is upbeat and likable from the very start and there is nothing to dislike when the full band kick into a fast-paced elevating chorus. The second track from the single is 'Irreplaceable Love', a slower and perhaps more tame effort from the Cumbernauld lads. However, it is in its own right, just as good as the main track from the single and definitely worth listening to. The band have enjoyed success with 'One Last Night' as it was recently played by Forth One DJ Jim Gellately on his new music podcast.
With tracks like 'One Last Night', It may not be long before The Preventers follow in the foot steps of the likes of Paolo Nutini. The single - as well as many other tracks and an E.P - can be found be found on the bands Soundcloud page - http://soundcloud.com/the-preventers
