Underline the Sky

Underline the Sky

Underline the Sky is a female-fronted pop punk and rock group from Ipswich in Suffolk, United Kingdom. The band forms in Ipswich and builds its early profile without backing from management, PR, an agent or a record label.

Early releases and live activity

The group spends its first year writing and recording a debut EP, then follows its DIY release by winning the national music competition Road To V 2009. That win leads to a performance at V Festival alongside McFly, The Killers and Dizzee Rascal. Underline the Sky tours the EP across the UK before returning to the studio in 2010 to write and record a second EP, Just So You Know....

Just So You Know... is self-released and gains strong online sales internationally. The release also leads to an endorsement from Rockstar Energy Drink. In 2011 the band tours the EP again, including its first show in Europe and a festival appearance on Guernsey in the English Channel. By the end of 2011, the group has played more than 300 shows and sold well over 2,000 copies of its first two releases.

Days Like These and later work

In January 2012, Underline the Sky records its third EP and debut single with producer Marc Dowding. The release, Days Like These, includes the debut single Bad News. The band also makes its debut appearance at Latitude in support of the EP.
