The Destroyers

Alcohol-meets-exotica...

‘The Destroyers are a 15-piece Birmingham-based collective band with a difference – yes, they have the requisite rip-roaring horns, a crisp rhythm section and a charismatic leader, but they also have songs with intelligent lyrics and a maturity that far surpasses the usual alcohol-meets-exotica approach. Frontman Paul Murphy’s poetic growl sets the mood ... his gravelly voice declaiming over a lolloping cimbalom groove, sounding every bit like Taraf de Haidouks wandering by mistake onto the Thriller video shoot.’ Lemez Lovas, Songlines.
