After four sold out 7" singles, (Up The Hill/Citadel Shuffle - GPS, Keep Your Head/Clap Your Hands and Shake a Chain - GPS, Mary Soul/Big Wheels- 360 Dgrs and Powers of Ten/Open up Your Door - Rank Records) three European tours and handpicked for support tours with both The Raconteurs and The Brian Jonestown Massacre and a reputation for lively, exuberant and occasionally chaotic live shows, The See See released their debut album on the Great Pop Supplement in a limited edition vinyl version in November 2010, it sold out in a day, got repressed and sold out again. The album also came out on CD via Dell'Orso records in February 2011.

After a few choice festival dates The See See will continue the recordings of their 2nd Album. Due out in 2012.

BY THE SEA:

By The Sea are plotting a successful course for themselves both on the Merseyside and London gig circuits after a number of stunning live shows, where their small cannon of gorgeous 1960s inspired tunes leave audiences hungry for more and critics tipping the band for big things in the future.
