A ROCK singer and bassist from Kidderminster have released a music video for their band’s third single, following their tour with Eliza Doolittle.
The Amateurs released their third single The Rebel, on Monday.
Kidderminster rockers Matthew Colley, on vocals and Andrew Fletcher, on bass are joined by bandmates Jim Holliday on drums and Alex Wesley on guitar.
They have toured extensively throughout the UK, playing alongside artists such as Robert Plant, Athlete, Guillemots, Cage The Elephant and Reverend and The Makers.
Last year the group was invited by Oxfam to perform at Leeds Festival and this year at the Canadian Music Week in Toronto, Canada.
The Rebel accompanied by an action packed “spy movie” music video, is a culmination of work aimed at establishing the band in the mainstream. It follows their Homesick EP.
Matthew said: “We are really excited about the video. It’s a first for us and it was really good fun to make. We had a great laugh with the actors, extras and director.
“It’s a whole new thing having a video to go with your song- it’s giving it a new dimension. We are really excited and working really hard to get the new album finished and out for summer and then will be looking at playing some festivals.”
