| | AUBURN formed in the summer of 1997. Their first gig was at the jam-packed launch party of Scarlet Records held at the salubrious and smoky Madame JoJo's in Soho to a completely packed and enthusiastic house.
They immediately recorded their first single, 'Sweet Sebastian', which was released in 1998. The record received extensive airplay, on XFM, GLR, SBN and regionally, and backed by a nation-wide mini tour, the single sold out of it's limited pressing within 2 weeks.
They spent a few months writing new material and then teamed up with up and coming producer Tim Pettit, who had just finished working with Travis, Sun House and Carlene Carter.
With Tim, they recorded the next single 'For Life', which also got great radio support and the band toured UK and played many live radio sessions, including GLR (Robert Elms) in London.
Since then, they've had a baby!!!! (Well, Wan & Liz have!), And written and recorded the debut Album DREAMS.
Since DREAMS was completed, and released to fantastic reviews, selling steadily over the last 12 months, AUBURN have toured with SOPHIE ELLIS BEXTOR In UK and EUROPE, playing to 40,000 people and continue to play live to great response whilst starting to write for their next album. They have also signed licenses throughout Europe and now signed to RIVE DROITE MUSIC for publishing.
