the online live music gig guide for the midlands

The Apostrophes were formed in February 2005 with the concept of high-octane formula 2 blokes / 4 guitars, covers & originals; an approach stripped down to the skinny bones with no safety net!

Both Dave & Mark have been in full-out rock, punk, cover/cabaret and psycho-ska bands – too many to mention – within Merseyside and the Midlands all their dissolute lives.

The Apostrophes is an act designed to get away from the idea of a 'proper' 4-piece band with fights, prima-donna attitude and the drummer that lets everyone down too often, turns up pissed and tries to get off with your wife... at an APOSTROPHES gig, you'll wake up rudely and think, "Well - how did I get here?"
