Biography
Fitting in perfectly with the Brit pop boom of the mid-1990s, Shed Seven had the shaggy haircuts, swaggering confidence and enough soaring indie pop tunes to become one of the most popular lad-rock acts of the time. Led by front man Rick Witter, the band formed in York in 1990 and their relentless gigging steadily built up a buzz that saw them land a six album deal with Polydor Records. Alongside the likes of Oasis, Blur, Cast and Pulp, Shed Seven's retro guitar licks and bouncy energy sent albums A Maximum High (1996) and Let It Ride (1998) into the UK Top 10, while singles On Standby, Chasing Rainbows, Going For Gold, She Left Me On Friday and Getting Better became big indie rock anthems. As the decade came to an end and trends changed, the band began to struggle and were forced to split after releasing fourth album Truth Be Told (2001). Witter went on to release solo material under the name Rick Witter and the Dukes, while guitarist Paul Banks formed the band Albion. Shed Seven reunited for a greatest hits tour in 2007 which proved so successful, they played festivals the following year and continue to undertake occasional tours.
