Formed from the ashes of the much-missed Fell City Girl, Oxford-based 4 piece The Winchell Riots release their debut ‘Histories’ EP through Andrew The Great Records as 300 ltd. edition CD’s. Their debut Oxford show sold out well in advance such was the hype, their second show at Truck Festival saw over 800 people pack into the Barn Stage to watch their set, and their third show saw the band tear apart Manchester's In The City showcase conference. Out of step and out of time, things are moving quickly in the world of The Winchell Riots.

Formed over a love of the novels of Philip Roth, mixing up Death Cab For Cutie with Bjork and Sigur Ros, and with support slots ranging from iLikeTrains to Michael Rother (Kraftwerk/Neu! founding member) the band have yet to release a note of music, but already the buzz is building. With shows booked nationally across the UK, 2008 looks like a bright year for The Winchell Riots.
