The Transporters were initially formed in 2004 when founding members Steve Tovey and Grace B met and started writing and producing together. Initially an experiment to fuse the darker elements of folk music to classical riffs and dance beats, the union soon produced its first album of songs in Transported.

It soon became clear that people really loved the tracks, straight after uploading them onto mp3unsigned.com they were entering many different genres of music charts simultaneously and gaining a following of their own. The problem was that we were producing so much material that we focused on our internet presence too much to communicate the songs. We soon realised that people wanted to hear the songs live. By this time a second volume of songs had already been written and although we were getting a great reaction from the few gigs and open-mic nights we did, we wanted to form a band that could take the tracks to a live audience.
The hunt for a drummer was short lived since Grace had known Gus for many years and he had already worked with us on Show Me Your Face (from Transported LP). Gus adds a rich element to the songs, a driving force that combines well with the structure of the tracks. His performances on his tribal drums transfix the crowd and he is soon to be encorporating a standard rock drum kit which can only improve the diversity of our live sound.

Steve left the live side of the band in 2008 to concentrate on the website and production, whilst Jules replaced him in the band, a fantastic producer in his own right he also produces and co-writes. He plays bass in live shows and has recently produced some amazing remixes of Her World (Transported LP) Saturday Morning (Transported LP) and Lifewreck (My Escape LP).

That just about brings us bang up to date. Now the website is soon to be back online and both albums are soon to be made available for download on i-tunes. Keep your eye on the News section and follow our progress by joining our myspace page.
