Lacking a bit vocally, and hard to pitch in a particular genre, One Room House nevertheless bring their unique slant on life from Staffordshire's Stoke-on-Trent. The foursome who share the duties in One Room House seem influenced by Crowded House, Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers and Athlete and are gigging hard on the local Midlands scene, as well as north-west England.

This, and their debut EP 'Myopic Avenue', show considerable promise What they clearly need is better production.
