The Subway Run is a
three-piece band from the North of Durban with Freddy Lalendle on lead vocals,
Bradley Downs on guitar and slides and Celene Adams on vocals and percussion.
The trio met at an open mic evening, started jamming together and had an
instant click and this is when The Subway Run was born.
Their sound is a
combination of soul, blues, indie rock and a touch of folk. The focus of the band
is on creating heartfelt compositions. The hurt and pain, but also the happy
times that they went through individually have made their passion for music
very strong. This approach ensures they relate to their own music and audiences
throughout the world will relate as well.
The band draws
their inspiration from artists such as Ben Howard, Matt Corby, Louis Armstrong,
Sons of the East and Mumford and Sons. They are currently in the process of
releasing their first EP. Nevertheless, they already have some prestigious performances
under their belt such as at the Durban Street Food Festival and at Botanical
Gardens.
