Errors is a 4 piece band from Glasgow, Scotland. Originally formed in 2004 by Simon Ward, Stephen Livingstone and Greg Paterson on the back of a 3 track demo recorded in Simonʼs bedroom the band quickly set about making a name for themselves in their hometown with their unique take on dance music. The band were soon taken under the wing of Mogwai who signed them to their Rock Action label alongside the likes of Part Chimp and James Orr Complex. To date they have released a series of 7” singles, EPs and their debut album ʻItʼs Not Something But It Is Like Whatever” through Rock Action and these releases have brought them to the attention of the mainstream media with support and acclaim for the band coming across the board from MTV, DJʼs like Zane Lowe, John Kennedy and Vic Galloway along with sessions at Maida Vale for Mary Anne Hobbs, Rob Da Bank and Huw Stephens, magazines such as NME, Dazed and Confused and Rock Sound as well as tours and live dates with bands as varied as Underworld, Franz Ferdinand, Explosions In The Sky, Gary Numan and Mogwai. 2009 marked the recording of Errorsʼ sophomore release; “Come Down With Me”. Recorded and produced by the band in their customised studio “The Freezer” based in Glasgowʼs East End. The record builds on the merged sound of electronic and analogue that has become Errors signature. Angular, spiraling guitars, underpinned by truly mesmerising beats combined with euphoric synths and pop hooks. ʻCome Down With Meʼ was released to critical acclaim in 2010 described in a 4 star review in Q as “a thrilling invitation” while NME hailed them as “one of the most interesting bands in the country”. The band are about to release a remix album of their sophmore release entitled ʻCelebrity Come Down With Meʼ featuring contributions from the likes of The Field, Gold Panda, Mogwai and Wax Stag as well as embarking on a co-headline UK tour with fellow Scots The Twilight Sad.
