Hell To Pay had a monumental 2010. Kicked into life by winning 106.1 Manchester Rock Radio’s Battle Of The Band’s competition less than a year after forming, leading the band to twice play at the legendary Ritz venue in Manchester to sell out crowds.
Catching the attention of Live Nation saw them open up for Rise To Remain & Holy Grail as well as share the stage with legendary former Iron Maiden vocalist Blaze Bayley, one time AC/DC front man Dave Evans and finally rounding the year off in some style by opening for personal hero and guitar god Paul Gilbert… Not to mention shooting their first Music Video!
2011 saw the boys build upon the previous years success. Releasing their debut EP ‘So Far.. So Good’ lead to them embarking on their first headline UK Tour, taking them to over 25 different venues right across the country in the space of 2 months! A busy summer saw them play their first outdoor headline slot as well as a host of other festival appearances not to mention making the final of Hard Rock Hell's Unsigned competition Highway To Hell in October.
Further shows with established acts such as The Treatment, The Crave & Marseille helped the band see the year out on a high.
2012 is seeing Hell To Pay head back into the studio in April to record the follow up to ‘So Far... So Good’, with an extensive tour planned on the back of that and summer festival shows already organised (including headlining the Original Artists Stage at 106.1 Rock Radio’s Mockfest) it's shaping up to be another remarkable Year for Hell To Pay!
