Invaderband

Invaderband are a garage/artrock band assembled in Derry, Northern Ireland in 2012 by Mancunian singer, guitarist and songwriter Adam Leonard who enlisted local musicians to voltage-enhance his dystopian post-punk songs. Their self-titled debut album was released in 2017 and the record has enjoyed radio play throughout the UK & Ireland (BBC Radio 6Music, BBC Radio Ulster, BBC Radio Foyle, RTE 2FM, RTE 2XM, RTE RNAG & Today FM) and has received widespread critical acclaim. The album was shortlisted (Top 12) for the Northern Ireland Music Prize Album of the Year 2017. In 2021 a new album 'Peter Gabriel' was announced and lead single 'I Won't Remember You' was released on 12th March (making the BBC Music NI Where Music Matters Playlist). Follow up single ‘Handcuffed Man Shoots Himself’ was released in July. The quartet have played shows all over Ireland and Northern Ireland including Other Voices (Co. Kerry), and their singles have been afforded repeat plays on BBC Radio 6Music (Gideon Coe, Steve Lamacq & Tom Robinson). ‘Peter Gabriel’ was released in September 2021, and has again received national radio play in the UK (6Music, Radio X) and Ireland (RTE2, Today FM), rave reviews, and has ended up in a number of ‘Best of 2021’ lists.
