The band consists of Rory Delaney, Chris Fielding, Zak Collins and George Edwards. The band have been supporting minor acts in pubs and small venues and have picked up a high reception for their witty and cocky attitudes, their high energy performances and their ability to perform and do what they love: playing music. The band got noticed when supporting a fellow minor London band by Taylor Asbridge, who has agreed to produce some of the band's work, including their upcoming EP: "Let's Skip The Minor Details" which is set for release in August 2012. All four members of the band met during their school days and formed topLADS after they all finished college. The band became one of the first bands to hit the top 10 in the Digital Charts while being unsigned, reaching #8 with their debut single, "Better Than Your Average Joe" which also hit peaks of #12 in the Airplay Charts and #3 in the Alternate/Indie Charts. The impressive start for the band landed them a record deal with Liberation/Nomad Records. They have also released their second single, "Good Morning" which went straight to #1 in the Digital Charts, marking topLADs first ever number one. At the third Fans Choice Awards, the band won the award for "Best New Artist" and Rory Delaney was a nominee for "Sexiest Male" Origin: London, England Genre(s): Alternative Rock Label: Liberation/Nomad Records (2012-present) Years active: 2010-present Rory Delaney - Lead Vocals Chris Fielding - Guitar, back up vocals Zak Collins - Bass guitar, back up vocals George Edwards - Drums, back up vocals July 9, 2012 BBC Reviews Show July 10, 2012 Camden, London: Dublin Castle July 11, 2012 Balham, London: The Bedford July 13, 2012 St. Pancras, London: St. Pancras Station Sessions July 14, 2012 Camden, London: Camden Barfly --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- July 17, 2012 Corfu, New York: Darien Lake Performing Arts Center July 18, 2012 Scranton, Pennsylvania: Toyota Pavilion July 19, 2012 Mansfield, Massachusetts: Comcast Center July 20, 2012 Camden, New Jersey: Susquehanna Bank Center July 21, 2012 Uniondale, New York: Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum July 22, 2012 Hartford, Connecticut: Comcast Theatre July 24, 2012 Columbia, Maryland: Merriweather Post Pavilion July 25, 2012 Virginia Beach, Virginia: Farm Bureau Live July 26, 2012 Atlanta, Georgia: Aaron's Amphitheatre at Lakewood July 27, 2012 Orlando, Florida: Central Florida Fairgrounds July 28, 2012 West Palm Beach, Florida: Cruzan Amphitheatre July 29, 2012 St. Petersburg, Florida: Vinoy Park July 30, 2012 Charlotte, North Carolina: Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre July 31, 2012 Cincinnati, Ohio: Riverbend Music Center August 1, 2012 Milwaukee, Wisconsin: Marcus Amphitheater August 4, 2012 Redmond, Washington: Marymoor Amphitheater August 5, 2012 Portland, Oregon: Rose Quarter Riverfront August 12, 2012 London, England: Alexandra Palace August 17, 2012 Dallas, Texas: Gexa Energy Pavilion August 18, 2012 Maryland Heights, Missouri: Verizon Wireless Amphitheater August 19, 2012 Auburn Hills, Michigan: The Palace of Auburn Hills August 21, 2012 Tinley Park, Illinois: First Midwest Bank Amphitheatre August 22, 2012 Shakopee, Minnesota: Canterbury Park August 24, 2012 Bonner Springs, Kansas: Sandstone Amphitheater August 28, 2012 Noblesville, Indiana: Klipsch Music Center November 2, 2012 Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio: Blossom Music Center November 3, 2012 Burgettstown, Pennsylvania: First Niagara Pavilion Novermber 4, 2012 Holmdel, New Jersey:PNC Bank Arts Center November 7, 2012 Montreal, Quebec: Parc Jean-Drapeau November 9, 2012 Toronto, Ontario: Molson Canadian Amphitheatre Let's Skip The Minor Details (Mini Album) - August 2012 Better Than Your Average Joe - June 2012 Good Morning - July 2012 Edited by user 14 August 2012 03:18:40(UTC) \| Reason: Not specified

So in other words, so far so good. :D Our first EP should be out soon, we're going to head into the studio later this month to start recording. We've wrote 6 songs that will be put onto it and some b-sides for the singles aswell, we may even release a single early next month. We're also working on getting a supporting spot for a UK tour sometime to promote the EP. :) -- Rory

When you realise that's he's coming home Are you pleased to see me? 'cause we talked, then we walked for about an eternity We shared drinks, then a kiss and then things got a little dirty He's stepping through the door He's not pleased to see me You don't need him You need me Don't give him all that shit about how it's not you, it's me Don't say it was the drinks I know how you think You want to be here with me I'm better than your average Joe Do you still believe me? Tell you things that I know that no one else knows Do you still believe me? 'cause we kissed for a while, while you were in denial Sweaty nights for a smile Are you pleased to see me? You're asking for more, while he's in tears on the floor I guess you believe me You don't need him You need me Don't give him all that shit about how it's not you, it's me Don't say it was the drinks I know how you think You want to be here with me And you'll never know happiness like this He makes you cry, I make you beg for a kiss Swapping sadness and pain for eternal bliss It's an oportunity too good to miss Sleeping beside me, all hung over Are you pleased to see me?

The frontman, who's had a controversial start to his music career following his reputation of a guy who likes to sleep around and has been a true hit with the women, has landed in a spot of bother by breaking his arm whilst joining in a wall of death during his own song, causing himself to get knocked to the ground, landing awkwardly on his arm, resulting in a break. Following this, he managed to complete the remainder of the gig, playing out 2 more songs before being rushed to a local A&E. The band, who have just come off of releasing their first single, "Better Than Your Average Joe" have been working well to make a name for themselves, and spoke to a Culture Uncut reporter on the incident. Drummer George Edwards gave his verdict on the incident, "Yeah, well from the drums, it was pretty hard to see what went down, y'know? He went down to join the crowd as he usually does and as soon as the circle come together you never see what happens inside from the stage but once he came back to the stage we could all see he was in pain. Fair dos to him though, we asked him if he wanted to call the rest of the gig off and he told us to carry on. He's out of hospital now though, and he should be okay."

The band hit a massive high by ranking above massive artists and bands such as Weekend, Kato, Cristina Lake and Stephanie Fierce despite the band currently being unsigned and without a record deal. The great start for the band should likely bring the name 'topLADs' to the attention of a few record label owners over the next few weeks as they search to find a record deal that will suit to them. The single will be on topLADs upcoming EP, 'Let's Skip The Minor Details' but the band are not yet decided on whether the song will play a part on any album in the future, claiming that the world 'hasn't seen the best of them yet.'

Following the success of 'Better Than Your Average Joe' the LADs had been approached by Liberation/Nomad Records, which led to the band penning down a two album deal.
