Blue October UK are signed to A Different Drum ( USA ) and Cryonica ( UK ). Three full length albums are under their belt and inclusions on several compilations have attracted fans from every corner of the globe who have fallen in love with their unique style of incandescent, constantly evolving dream pop. Contrasting sonics and dynamics, galvanised with tunes from heaven, produce a live set riddled with edge and aggression.
