The Bexleys
I Want To Go Home

unsigned

WE SAY

I Want To Go Home came to us out of the blue and who knows where it fits in in today's musical climate, but there has to be a place for timeless, melodic songwriting like this. The Bexleys are two brothers from Dublin who started the band in 2000 and acquired a drummer two years later after moving to London. They play London's Spitz on Thursday March 10, onstage 8.30pm.
