[edit] Band History
A Little Bitter formed in early June of 2004. Growing up in Coalisland, Co. Tyrone, Northern Ireland, three young musicians befriended each other in the early days of school when they met at the school music room. Each of them had formed different bands, playing different instruments, and have for many years performed live gigs with many cover and original bands. In June 2004 the trio got jamming together and found in themselves a unique chemistry combined with perfectionist attitude and a common need for superior musicianship. Each person drives the others to be the best they can be. The band hopes that this is reflected in their music, but the people will judge that. Since then they have strictly spent their time writing material, crafting songs, performing their own music to appreciative audiences. Thye have successfully toured countless venues bringing their material to appreciative audiences and played to packed out venues across Northern Ireland.
[edit] Debut Album
"The Blood" is the name of the bands debut album and was released in September 2006. The band underwent a tour of venues in Northern Ireland to promote the launch, entitled "The Blood-y Campaign".
