In March of 2007 UPop 29's Ted Kelly heard Dislocated from SSA. he liked what he heard and immediately contacted SSA's Darren to invite them to be part of the 2008. After a blistering 40 minute set at the legendary Studio 2 at Abbey Road we welcome you to the dirty pop world of Slashed Seat Affair!
Slashed Seat Affair are; Ellie Mules (vocals), Darren Michael (Bass) & Rob Meehan (Drums). They are not afraid to call themselves ‘pop’ or ‘radio friendly’ but be careful…for they have a darker & deeper side that creeps up on you when you least expect it.
With an industry ever creating manufactured pop, SSA’s original style, lyrics and performance make them credible and immediately accessible, which is truly - a force to be reckoned with.
They have received national radio play in the UK and featured on WorldSpace, XM AOL and DirecTV's UPop 29 as well as the MTV unsigned video play in Japan, Canada, the US & Europe
Live, SSA have supported major acts such as The Guillemots, Nate James and Chris Shiflett of the Foo Fighters other band, Jackson United
Slashed Seat Affair are currently recording material with producer Phil Tyreman, whose credits include, Snow Patrol, Seal, The Darkness, Velvet Revolver, Trevor Horn and Belle and Sebastian
Here is the video for their track ‘Dislocated’ had the good people at Topshop, along with those at Toni & Guy, demanding it be played in all their stores throughout the UK. Visit Slashed Seat Affair online (Here)
