The world is often ironic… virtually unheard of at home, The Servant from the UK is already “making it big” on the European continent: up for Best New Band at the French NRJ Awards, peaking at number 2 in radio charts and headlining the prestigious Olympia in Paris; heavy TV rotation, MTV festival headliners and sold out tours in Italy, not to mention a 6-page spread in Vogue; plus high radio play in Finland, Norway and Russia and now also making waves in the US after supplying music for the trailer of cult movie Sin City… These schizoid art-rock popsters surrounding the charismatic frontman Dan Black love to play havoc with conventional taste buds. Sometimes a band can come along and really baffle you. The Servant are an alternative pop “hybrid” totally overlooked by UK Radio while inescapable the length and breadth of Europe.
