Formed in 2001, Underdog was founded by Andrew Chirgwin (Rythmn guitar) and Steve Brian (drums), aiming to create rock music but away from the mainstream ‘pop rock and emo’ of the time.

The band, Originally called Bacchanal, was short a bass player, lead guitarist and singer.

After several years of help from many friends (click here) and musicians in 2006 Jon Bramley joined the band as singer, recruited from a side project Steve was involved in.

Jon also took on the role of bass player as well, with his growly vocals sitting nicely on top of the rock vibes being played.

Now only a lead guitarist was needed.

In early 2011 David Oxlade joined Underdog to take this position, and the current line up was created.

In 2010, with the help from producer Pete Brown Underdog completed their first studio album with the help of many friends of the band as well as the band themselves.

The album entitles ‘Black’ is now available at many online stores, including I-Tunes and HMV online.
