//ICE Biography//
Who are the ICE band?
Well, the ICE band is an original, contemporary 4 piece band based in Lancashire. They are inventive and curious; in turns relaxing or passionate; fiendishly hard to categorise yet perfect for any record collection in the land.
Featuring Janie on vocals and keyboards, Paul on guitars and vocals, Guy on Bass and Lynn on drums and vocals, they produce a unique and exciting sound which couples fascinating melodies with soaring and honest vocals.
They’re already building a cult following in the North West and are working on a new album which should be available towards the middle of 2010 and also released their first single ' Look into my eyes 24th November 2009 on SW Music
which you can buy at www.iceband.net/eyeshop.htm." rel="nofollow" target="_blank">www.iceband.net/eyeshop.htm.
All songs are written by Janie and Paul Britton.
The songs are taken into band practice to get everybodies opinion and are then if deemed okay arranged and recorded by the band members above.

Wellington Hotel Clayton Le Moors review gig 05/02/2010
Friday night brought the first visit from out new Monthly Resident band The Ice Band.
They are brilliant, very eighties influenced, but very catchy and good for a dance.
They went down really well with the regulars and we can't wait to have them back next month.

NICE ICE 04/09/2009 - The Royal Oak Hotel.
With The Fleetwood Festival running over the next 3 days, I made a decision a while back to bring something new and different to the venue,. Were they different or what !!!!
Totally surprised everyone, who were expecting to see and hear a covers band.
A couple of numbers to get the levels right and the band launched into an impressive first set. One local (with Carling soaked brains asked why no Spice Girls) but for the most part the crowd were attentively listening to every catchy hook. By now the muppet was up, dancing and seemingly having a good time ( though I doubt he will remember much in the morning)
A well crafted 2nd set got underway including the soon to be released single "Look into my eyes". The crowd were now totally hooked by the band and maybe word had got out as more folks came in. A faultless evening of original material, played effortlessly by 4 of the nicest people I have ever met.
Mingling afterward, I had so much good feedback that I felt the risk in putting on an originals band in what is usually a rock venue was more than worthwhile.
A privilege to have them at The Oak. Give yourselves a massive pat on the back for a gig well done.
Thanks to Janie,Paul,Lynn and Guy for everything.

"The only problem with the Ice Band is that their songs are so damned catchy, you find yourself humming them for days later, trying to think
where it was that you heard it. You wake up in the morning with the Da Da Dats of Dance with the Fire roaming around your head, you go to sleep singing
Just a Man and you suddenly want to be a Weathergirl.
I urge you to find where this band are playing and go to see them before they become hot property and it starts to cost you money to get tickets."

Due to a late line up change I missed most of soft rock three piece ICEs set ( you're fired ed), but the little I did manage to catch
seemed to go down pretty well with the people watching. Front womans Janies, voice was definately up to the job although it would
have been nice to see her emerge from behind her keyboards and really belt something out.
