Wikipedia
Loci are an alt-rock band from Bristol, United Kingdom. Their line-up consists of Ben Rosser (Guitars, vocals), Janet Jauregui (bass, backing vocals) and Tim Thorne (drums). The band's sound has been described as a 'dark' style of alt-rock, leading to comparisons with grunge era bands such as Soundgarden and The Smashing Pumpkins.
After releasing their debut EP Filtered to Function in 2006 Loci toured nationally, playing with bands such as Diesofluid and Killing For Company.
In December 2008 the band released Medic, a six track EP which showcases both heavy and melodic elements within the trio's sound. To accompany this new release, Loci resumed touring with their CD launch show in Stokes Croft and an appearance at the Red Stripe Music Awards.
