Duologue are a newly formed four-piece band from London, initially founded last year by university friends Tim Digby-Bell and Toby Leeming as a song-writing project. In the time that followed they spent many hours in their home studio writing and recording material that blended and reflected their shared influences whilst also treading new ground.
Confident in the songs and having received the ultimate praise from Steve Lamacq who admitted he was lost for words to describe them, Duologue set about recruiting two further band members, Toby Lee and Seb Dilleyston, to bring their unique sound to the stage. Drawing on their love of 'band music' as well as a broad range of electronic music, their sound combines all the capabilities that synths and electronics provide whilst never forgetting the need for solid melodies and songs.
Duologue's live performance now consists of two guitarists, live electronics and strings. With all the band members being multi-instrumentalists they are able to switch around when they want to and as the stages they play on grow in size, so undoubtedly will the scope of their live set.
