Celebrating their debut album with a UK tour
Comprising lead vocalist Alex Rice, guitarists Robb Knaggs and Henry Young, bassist Oli Dewdney, keyboardist Ben Mac and drummer Al Greenwood, London-based collective Sports Team met while studying at the UK’s prestigious University of Cambridge. Drawn together by a shared love of ’90s rock and a desire to shake up their stale local scene, the six-piece began to develop their energetic live show with a shared focus across music and rebellious performance.
Quickly making a name for themselves with their vibrant live shows, Sports Team signed to Nice Swan Records in 2018 for the release of the five-track EP, Winter Nets. Preceded by the release of singles Stanton and Beverly Rose, the EP immediately cemented Sports Team’s playful sound, brimming with social and political commentary yet underpinned by a cathartic, carefree attitude.
