Tripwires is a power pop/rock band from southern England that, like many similar independent acts, formed as a labor of love between four confident young musicians looking to bring their own unique ideas to the UK's independent music scene. Since forming in 2007, the band has slowly been edging itself out of the relative obscurity of small time local gigs and is now poised and ready to take their acclaimed act to the national stage. Celebrated as a welcome reminder that England still takes its shoegaze seriously, Tripwires is truly a learned product of the genre's regional roots, which is further enhanced by carefully flaunting a certain charisma that's doing much to bring the sidelined genre back into Britain's indie spotlight.
