The Furze

The Furze were a British indie band from Maidenhead, Berkshire, England. The members of the band recorded together for more than ten years, and the same line-up previously performed under the name Kid Galahad. The band’s name is a reference to Furze Platt, the suburb of Maidenhead where the members originated. Their music style has been compared to that of Beck and Jane's Addiction. The band supported a number of prominent artists at concerts around the world, including Marillion, Kaiser Chiefs, Supergrass, Oasis, Kings of Leon and Elliott Smith. The band bemoaned the lack of live music venues and outlets for local talent in the Maidenhead area, and as a result invested in Denmark Studios in the town.
