We love that they combine funk, disco and rock all together with massive hooks. It makes them really stand out and makes them a unique outfit! They gave us a lot of advice at the Red Bull Studios about looking after our vocals and which bits to focus on when writing, including different methods of writing when on the road.<\/p>\n<p><b>A musician that has influenced us:<\/b><br \/><b>Travis Barker<\/b>, he was the first musician that made our drummer, Rik, want to play, want to be in a band and want to venture into music. He&rsquo;s been a massive inspiration to a lot of drummers and musicians alike, purely because he gives his all and creates such original ideas with a lot of drive. <i>&#8216;First Date&rsquo;<\/i> by <b>Blink-182<\/b> was one of the songs that inspired our drummer to write music and gave him the passion to play drums.<!-- more --><\/p>\n<figure><\/figure>\n<p><b>A song that has influenced us:<\/b><br \/><i>&#8216;Here We Go&rsquo;<\/i> by <b>Lower Than Atlantis<\/b>. When we heard this song, it inspired us to write more riff-based music and pushed us to create the kind of music that we all actually enjoy performing, as well as writing. They&rsquo;re a really interesting band in terms of their structuring, with the little hooks and signature sections that they incorporate into their songs.<\/p>\n<p><b>A musical event that influenced us:<\/b><br \/><b>Glastonbury<\/b> was a massive inspiration and an eye opener to us in regards to world music: how many variations of the same thing there are worldwide, but tweaked. Traveling helps you realise that America has a great variation of sound broadcasted on their radio stations in comparison to English mainstream broadcasting.<\/p>\n<p><b>An album that influenced us: <\/b><br \/>\nWe took a lot of inspiration from <b>You Me At Six<\/b>&rsquo;s album <i>&#8216;Sinners Never Sleep&rsquo;<\/i>. This album set a bar for us when we started the band, in terms of sound quality and the direction that we wanted to take, hence why we worked with Matt O&#8217;Grady. He&rsquo;s done a great job with helping us to develop and make us sound better. That album was referenced a lot during our early writing stages, but our sound has developed a lot more and our tastes have become more varied.<\/p>\n<p><i>&#8216;Better Off&rsquo;<\/i> by <b>Adelphia<\/b> is out now.<\/p>\n<p><b>Adelphia<\/b> links: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.adelphiaofficial.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Website<\/a>|<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/adelphiaband\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a>|<a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/AdelphiaBand\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since forming in 2013, Nottingham pop-rockers Adelphia have gradually been building a tight-knit following whilst perfecting their sound.
